Exegesis
The preposition peri {περὶ | pe-rí} governs the genitive tou christou {τοῦ χριστοῦ | toû khris-toû} and marks “the Christ” as the precise topic under consideration.
The answer phrase Tou Dauid {Τοῦ Δαυίδ | Toû Da-uíd} employs the genitive article with the proper name to indicate familial origin, “the son of David,” a succinct confession of Davidic Messianic expectation. In translation, the paired interrogatives are preserved as two coordinated questions, while the impersonal construction is rendered with natural English idioms for opinion and the genitive of lineage is expressed with “of David” and “David’s.”
