Hey there, I think AUTON is the object of EDWKEN and I would suspect that KEFALHN is an accusative of object compliment. THi EKKLHSIA is not the object of EDWKEN, but an indirect object of the verb. Maybe a dative of advantage.

We read; 

...KAI AUTON EDWKEN KEFALHN hUPER PANTA THi EKKLHSIAi. 

How do the parts of this fit together? 

Does KEFALHN hUPER PANTA modify AUTON or is it the object of EDWKEN? 

What is the purpose for THi EKKLHSIAi? Is it the object of EDWKEN? 

What idea is the writer trying to convey to the reader? The KJV translators added language to try to sort out what is being said but I get the impression that they were not sure what to do with THi EKKLHSIAi.
