Exegesis
The conjunction hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} introduces the explanatory clause houtoi hoi logoi pistoi kai alethinoi eisin {οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι πιστοὶ καὶ ἀληθινοί εἰσιν | hoû-toi hoi ló-goi pis-toí kaí a-lē-thi-noí ei-sin}, where the demonstrative houtoi and article hoi specify “these words,” and the coordinated adjectives pistoi and alethinoi affirm their reliability and truthfulness. The copula eisin makes the affirmation explicit.
In context — Revelation 21:5
And the One seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am renewing all things.” Then He says, “Write, because these words are faithful and true.”
