Exegesis
The phrase mian ek tōn kephalōn autou {μίαν ἐκ τῶν κεφαλῶν αὐτοῦ | mí-an ek tôn ke-pha-lôn au-toû} is an accusative object phrase (“one out of his heads”) whose verb is supplied from the broader visionary context (“he saw”), singling out a particular head from among several.
The next clause, hē plēgē tou thanatou autou etherapeuthē {ἡ πληγὴ τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ ἐθεραπεύθη | hē plē-gḗ tou tha-ná-tou au-toû e-the-ra-peú-thē}, is a complete nominative clause in which “the wound of his death” is the subject and aorist passive etherapeuthē is the verb, depicting the healing as a completed event, almost paradoxical given its lethal character.
In context — Revelation 13:3
And one of his heads was as though it had been slain unto death, and the wound of his death was healed, and all the earth marveled after the beast .
