Exegesis
The substantive adjective makarioi followed by the participial clause nekroi apothnēskontes {Μακάριοι οἱ νεκροὶ ἀποθνῄσκοντες | makárioi hoi nekrói apothnēískontes} forms the beatitude ‘Blessed are the dead who die,’ with en kuriō ap’ arti {ἐν κυρίῳ ἀπʼ ἄρτι | en kyríō ap’ árti} situating these deaths within the sphere of the Lord from this point forward.
In context — Revelation 14:13
And I heard a voice from heaven proclaim, “Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Yes,” says the Spirit , “they will rest from their labors, for their works follow them.”
