Exegesis
The prepositional phrase en autō {ἐν αὐτῷ | en au-tôi} marks the sphere or location in which these powers operate. English renderings preserve this syntax by maintaining the direct speech, the causal “because of this / that is why,” and an explicit subject–verb–prepositional phrase sequence (“the powers are working in him”) to reflect the Greek clause structure and logical progression.

In context — Matthew 14:2
