Exegesis
The noun chain ten gunaika Philippou tou adelphou autou {τὴν γυναῖκα Φιλίππου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ | tēn gynaika Philíppou tou adelphou autou} ‘the wife of Philip, his brother’ uses genitives to mark possession and family relationship, clarifying the morally problematic union. In English, the participial construction is rendered with a subordinate clause (“having seized John”) and the verb sequence is kept as coordinated finite verbs, preserving the flow while making the causative and relational phrases clear.
In context — Matthew 14:3
For Herod , having seized John, bound him and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias , the wife of Philip, his brother.
