Exegesis
The verse opens with two predicate adjectives, makarios {μακάριος | ma-ká-ri-os} and hagios {ἅγιος | há-gi-os}, fronted for emphasis and linked to the substantive participial phrase ho echon meros {ὁ ἔχων μέρος | ho é-khōn mé-ros} “the one having a share,” which functions as the grammatical subject.
