Exegesis
The first clause, Azor de egennesen ton Sadok {Ἀζὼρ δὲ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Σαδώκ | Azòr dè egénnēsen tón Sadṓk}, presents Azor as the subject who begets Sadok, with the article ton marking Sadok as a specific descendant.
The pattern continues with Sadok de egennesen ton Achim {Σαδὼκ δὲ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Ἀχίμ | Sadṑk dè egénnēsen tón Achím} and Achim de egennesen ton Elioud {Ἀχὶμ δὲ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Ἐλιούδ | Achìm dè egénnēsen tón Elioúd}, forming a rhythmic chain of begetting clauses.
In context — Matthew 1:14
Azor begat Sadok, and Sadok begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud.
