List,

2 Cor 4:15

...hINA hH CARIS PLEONASASA DIA TWN PLEIONWN THN EUCARISTIAN PERISSEUHi EIS THN DOXAN TOU QEOU.

Is this a difficult construction or what?

I can sort of get it gist but can grasp it fully.  What does the subject of the verb PERISEUHi?  And how does a subjunctive play into this? 

So far I have:

in order that grace abound through many (a majority) something to do with thanksgiving overflowing, to the glory of God!


If this is incredibly simple be gentle with my fragile ego,  I have pored over this for several hours and have refused the to simply accept the word of a commentary, without trying to understand the grammar.
