Exegesis
The nominative phrase hoi ophthalmoi {οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ | hoi oph-thal-moi} “the eyes” serves as the grammatical subject of the verb within the hina-clause, while the genitive hēmōn {ἡμῶν | hē-mōn} “of us, our” specifies whose eyes are in view. The formal rendering follows the structure of the hina-clause closely with “that our eyes may be opened,” whereas the dynamic version slightly adjusts the main verb to “replied” to clarify that this utterance answers Jesus’ prior question within the dialogue.
