Dear Oun,
First, I think TOU GNWNAI initiates an independent genitive clause, which
kind of extends as a run-on sentence from the previous material. Verses 7-11
are one long sentence.
Secondly, I think GNWNAI has three objects:
TOU GNWNAI
AUTON KAI
THN DUNAMIN THS ANASTASEWS AUTOU KAI
[THN] KOINWNIAN [TWN] PAQHMATWN AUTOU
I would paraphrase the key portions as "to know...what it is to share his
sufferings".

Two questions from Phi 3:10
Quoting 3:9-10
(9) KAI hEUREQW EN AUTW

KAI [THN] KOINWNIAN [TWN] PAQHMATWN AUTOU
SUMMORFIZOMENOS TW QANATW AUTOU
Question 1: How does TOU GNWNAI (v.10) connect with v. 9? Or does it
begin a new sentence somehow?
Question 2: Is KOINWNIAN (v. 10) (accusative) an object of the verb
GNWNAI? If then, what would it mean to say 'know fellowship'?
Thanks for your help.
