 Thanks to Carl and George for the replies.
(Sorry for mixing up the v and n for NU in the transliteration.)

The passage I cited was indeed all of what was in the workbook.

I think I am starting to understand the issue but I must confess that I certainly do not understand everything you two have written.

I am gathering that the gist of the passage is something like;
-Ignatius, to the Church (whom I greet in the name of Jesus Christ, the son of the Father) namely to those who are united in body and soul by every one of his commandments, Greetings.-
Is this correct?

I did indeed take KATA SARKA KAI PNEUMA to belong to Jesus Christ. I realized that it couldn't be right because Jesus is not the son of the Father according to the flesh, but I want to understand it grammatically.
In order to 'flesh out' my understanding could you tell me how the following sentence would be written in Greek? "Jesus Christ, son of Mary, according to the flesh"
Thanks again.
Bert de Haan.
