I would say "could be related back," not "should be related
back" and "grammatically possible (or, 'not grammatically
impossible" instead of "grammatically sound." I'm not sure
what the lack of the article before hAGIOIS in v. 8 means for
your theory. You also have to deal with the fact that hAGIOIS
in v. 5 modifies PROFHTAIS as well.
As often on this list, your question is more interesting than
any answer you are likely to get. Keep it up!

In Ephesians 3:8 the word HAGIWN is used in apparent isolation and is
translated as saints (KJV) or God's people (NIV).
My question is whether it should in fact be related back to the phrase TOIS
HAGIOIS APOSTOLOIS AUTOU in verse 5 thus making a rendering of "the least
of
all apostles".
Would this association be grammatically sound?
