Exegesis
The subject is expressed through the partitive construction hen ek tōn tessarōn zōiōn {ἓν ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ζῴων | hén ek tōn tessárōn zṓiōn}, “one from the four living creatures,” where the prepositional phrase with ek and the genitive specifies one member out of a defined group.
In context — Revelation 15:7
And one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls, full of the wrath of God , who lives forever and ever.
