Exegesis
The participial phrase hoi tērountes {οἱ τηροῦντες | hoi tē-roûn-tes}, used substantivally, identifies ‘those who keep’ and governs two parallel accusative objects: tas entolas tou theou {τὰς ἐντολὰς τοῦ θεοῦ | tàs en-to-lás toû the-oû} and tēn pistin Iesou {τὴν πίστιν Ἰησοῦ | tēn pí-stin Iē-soû}. The genitive theou indicates the source of the commandments, while Iesou may function as an objective genitive (‘faith in Jesus’) or a subjective genitive (‘Jesus’s faithfulness’). English renders the participle as a relative clause to preserve its durative aspect and aligns the coordinated objects to underscore the dual requirements for the saints’ perseverance.
