Exegesis
The core verb ekhei {ἔχει | é-khei} “he has” takes two coordinated prepositional phrases, epi to himation {ἐπὶ τὸ ἱμάτιον | epì tò himátion} and epi ton mēron autou {ἐπὶ τὸν μηρὸν αὐτοῦ | epì tòn mēròn autoû}, which locate the inscription on the robe and the thigh.
In context — Revelation 19:16
On His robe and on His thigh He bears an inscription: King of kings and Lord of lords .
