I am a beginning Greeker and am writing an exegetical paper for my Exegeting Greek (3rd semester) class. My passage is Eph. 2:11-22. I am having a bit of difficulty with the grammar of vs. 15, specifically in hINA clause. It reads (forgive me if I transliterate incorrectly) hINA TOUS DUO KTISHi EN AUTWi EIS hENA KAINON ANQROPOV... My question is how do phrases "the two" and "into one new man" connect to the verb "he might make" ? It seems that they are functioning as a double direct object, but BAGD or the other instances of KTIZW in the NT support that conclusion. If I take the prepositional phrase as modifying the verb, I am not at all sure how it would be relating to it. I am equally baffled by how the phrase would be modifying ANQROPOV. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Andrew Bowman
