E-kho OON tên KAU-khê-sin en khree-STO ee-ay-SOO ta pros ton the-ON
Exegesis
The accusative neuter plural phrase ta pros ton theon {τὰ πρὸς τὸν θεόν | tà pròs tòn theón} functions as a substantive meaning ‘the things relating to God’, with pros marking orientation toward its object. The linear sequence—verb + particle + object + dative sphere phrase + accusative orientation phrase—foregrounds boasting while bounding it within Christ and directing it to God.
In context — Romans 15:17
Therefore, in Christ Jesus I have reason to boast in matters that concern God .
