The syntax of the prepositional construction (εἰς τό + infinitive) in v. 8b and the infinitive verbs (βεβαιῶσαι and δοξάσαι) in vv. 8b-9a do not indicate an interruption in the flow of thought between the subjects 'Christ' and 'the Gentiles', but an argumentative incrementum that articulates proofs and purposes. |
