Exegesis
Two parallel prepositional phrases, dia tou kyriou hēmōn Iēsou Christou {διὰ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ | diá tou kyríou hēmôn Iēsou Christoû} and dia tēs agapēs tou pneumatos {διὰ τῆς ἀγάπης τοῦ πνεύματος | diá tēs agápēs tou pneúmatos}, express the grounds or motivating sphere of the exhortation: it is made “through” their shared relationship to the Lord and “through” the love that comes from, and characterizes, the Spirit.
In context — Romans 15:30
But I urge you, brothers, through our Lord Jesus Christ and through the love of the Spirit , to strive together with me in the prayers for me to God .
