Exegesis
The prepositional phrase diá tou phōtós autês {διὰ τοῦ φωτός αὐτῆς | diá tou phōtós autês} employs dia with the genitive to indicate the means or agency of the walk, namely the city’s light, with autês (“of her”) referring to the New Jerusalem.
In context — Revelation 21:24
And the nations will walk by her light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into her.
