Greetings

I have two questions. The second conerns the Tit 1:10 which reads: EISIN GAR POLLOI [KAI] ANUPOTAKTOI, MATAIOLOGOI KAI FRENAPATAI.

Firstly, what is TLG?

Secondly, Metzger (TCGNT 584) says, "It is difficult to decide whether KAI was added in accordance with the rhetorical usage known as hendiadys...." My understanding of hendiadys comes from Roy Zuck who defines it as "two co-ordinate terms representing a single concept in which one of the elements defines the other." I can see how ANUPOTAKTOI [KAI] MATAILOGOI could be a hendiadys, but I don't understand how Metzger construes [KAI] ANUPOTAKTOI, MATAIOLOGOI as such. Could someone please explain Metzger's explanation to this little Greek.

Thanks a million
