Greetings

Here are a few questions from Philippians 1:1-2.

PAULOS KAI TIMOQEOS DOULOI CRISTOU IHSOU PASIN TOIS hAGIOIS EN CRISTOWi 
IHSOU TOIS OUSIN EN FILIPPOIS SUN EPISKOPOIS KAI DIAKONOIS, CARIS hUMIN KAI 
EIRHNH APO QEOU PATROS hHMWN KAI KURIOU IHSOU CRISTOU.

Why are there no verbs in this verse, what verb is implied and what would 
be its form?

What is the function of DOULOI in this verse? What is its relationship to 
PAULOS KAI TIMOQEOS?

Why is CRISTOU IHSOU in the genitive? What type of genitive is it?

What is the force of EN in this passage?

Is TOIS OUSIN adjectival or substantival? On what do you base your 
conclusion?

Thanks
