Exegesis
The final clause features the aorist passive ēgorasthēsan {ἠγοράσθησαν | ē-go-rás-thē-san} ‘were redeemed’, with apo {ἀπὸ | a-pó} ‘from’ governing the genitive anthrōpōn {ἀνθρώπων | an-thrṓ-pōn} ‘humans’, the substantive aparchē {ἀπαρχὴ | a-par-chḗ} ‘firstfruits’, and the double dative tō Theō kai tō arnion {τῷ θεῷ καὶ τῷ ἀρνίῳ | tôi the-ō kaí tôi ar-ní-ō} ‘to God and to the Lamb’, marking consecration. This triplet of clauses underscores themes of purity, loyalty, and redemption through Greek relative, participial, and aorist constructions.
In context — Revelation 14:4
These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they are virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever He may go. They have been redeemed from among humanity as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb .
