Exegesis
The range apo tou haimatos Habel tou dikaiou heōs tou haimatos Zachariou huiou Barachiou {ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος Ἅβελ τοῦ δικαίου ἕως τοῦ αἵματος Ζαχαρίου υἱοῦ Βαραχίου | a-pó tou haí-ma-tos Há-bel tou di-kaí-ou hé-ōs tou haí-ma-tos Za-kha-rí-ou hy-oo Ba-ra-khí-ou} is introduced with apo…heōs as a temporal-historical merism, spanning from Abel in Genesis to Zechariah in the later historical books, thereby encompassing the full story of the righteous sufferers within Israel’s Scriptures. The repeated genitive haimatos plus the names emphasizes not only the individuals but the ongoing pattern of murderous hostility toward the righteous.
