Exegesis
The prepositional phrase eis doxan tou theou {εἰς δόξαν τοῦ θεοῦ | eis dóx-an toû the-oû} functions as a purpose or result construction, showing that the ultimate aim of both Christ’s reception and the community’s mutual welcome is the glory of God. The English renderings mirror this structure by preserving the sequence: inferential particle, imperative with reciprocal object, comparative model grounded in Christ’s action, and final purpose clause oriented toward God’s glory.
Root and etymology
dokeodelta–omicron–kappa–epsilon–omega
