Exegesis
The verse begins with the connective kai {καὶ | kaí}, linking this scene to the preceding visionary sequence.
The articular participles ho ōn kai ho ēn {ὁ ὢν καὶ ὁ ἦν | ho ṓn kaí ho ḗn} follow appositionally, forming a title that highlights divine existence in present and past time, echoing earlier formulations in the book and evoking covenantal self-revelation.
