Exegesis
The following clause Iesoun zeteite ton Nazarenon ton estauromenon {Ἰησοῦν ζητεῖτε τὸν Ναζαρηνὸν τὸν ἐσταυρωμένον | Iē-soûn zē-teî-te tòn Na-za-rē-nón tòn e-stau-rō-mé-non} places the verb zeteite in the second position, with the object fronted for focus: “Jesus you are seeking,” further specified by two appositional accusatives, “the Nazarene” and “the crucified one,” which tightly identify the historical person.
In context — Mark 16:6
But he says to them, “Do not be amazed ; you are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has been raised; He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.”
