Exegesis

The accusative sequence didaskalias entalmata anthropon {διδασκαλίας ἐντάλματα ἀνθρώπων | di-das-ka-lí-as en-tál-ma-ta an-thrṓ-pōn} forms an object-complement structure, with entalmata ‘commandments’ as the main object and didaskalias ‘teachings’ characterizing those commandments. The genitive anthropon identifies their human origin in contrast to divine mandate.
