Exegesis
The main clause centers on the finite verb edeixen {ἔδειξέν | é-dei-xen} ‘he showed’, with the indirect object moi {μοι | moi} ‘to me’ and the complex direct object potamon hydatos zoes {ποταμὸν ὕδατος ζωῆς | potamòn hýdatos zōês} ‘river of water of life’. The chained genitives hydatos and zoes form a genitive-of-content plus genitive-of-quality construction, portraying a river whose very substance is life-giving water.
In context — Revelation 22:1
And he showed me a river of the water of life, bright as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb .
