Exegesis

The prepositional phrase en kyríō {ἐν κυρίῳ | en kyríō} indicates the sphere of Christian fellowship, while axíōs {ἀξίως | axíōs} with the genitive tōn hagíōn {τῶν ἁγίων | tōn hagíōn} forms a genitive of standard to mark the appropriate measure of reception.

The indefinite relative clause en hō̂ án humō̂n chréizē prágmati {ἐν ᾧ ἂν ὑμῶν χρῄζῃ πράγματι | en hō̂ án humō̂n chréizē prágmati} uses the particle án with a subjunctive to convey open-ended contingency about her needs.
