I would construe it with APOQNHSKONTES since it is the nearest. Other than
that, it might be construed as going with the unexpressed copula meaning that
the dead are blessed henceforth whereas if it is take with APOQNHSKONTES it
indicates that those who henceforth die are blessed. I think it makes more
sense to take it with APOQNHSKONTES rather than the other way in addition to
being closer.

Rev 14:13
... MAKARIOI hOI NEKROI hOI EN KURIW APOQNHSKONTES AP' ARTI NAI LEGEI

My question to solve is: What is AP' APT construed to?
I doubt John was specifying them as those "dying from now on" (as
rendered by most including KJV, etc.)
May it be to MAKARIOI? (e.g. NAB, etc.) as if taking hOI EN KURIW
APOQNHSKONTES as parenthetical explanation of hOI NEKROI
Or, can I break this sentence after APOQNHSKONTES, as is rendered in
DRB? In that case the general sense seems to me to be same as taking
AP' ARTI construed to MAKARIOI.
