The Style of Galatians 507 two participial phrases found there would be instances of the trope antonomasia, substituting something for a proper name. sarki; kai; aimati in 1,16 is an instance of the trope synecdoche, using parts for { the whole; however, this is a thoroughly conventional synecdoche. The two participial phrases in 1,15 and the last two clauses in 1,17 are instances of the figure of speech isocolon, parts of a sentence with a virtually equal number of syllables. c) 2,4-5.6-10 As we have noted above, this is another syntactically elaborate part of Galatians. Vv. 4-5 are an anacoluthon, lacking a main clause. It consists of a prepositional phrase whose object is modified by two relative clauses. Another relative clause and a purpose clause depend on the first of the two relative clauses, and another purpose clause depends on the second of them. Vv. 6-10 form one long sentence. It begins with a prepositional phrase (v. 6a), which is followed by a parenthesis consisting of two clauses (v. 6b). The subject of the first of these clauses is a noun clause; the second clause is a simple sentence. After this parenthesis, the sentence begun before it is broken off – another anacoluthon. Instead of resuming where it left off, the sentence begins again with a simple clause (v. 6c). This is followed by a complex clause extending from v. 7 through v. 10. It begins with a participial phrase modifying the subject of the clause, on which depends a compound noun clause (v. 7). V. 8 is a parenthetical clause. The main clause resumes in v. 9a with a second participial phrase modifying the subject of the clause. This is followed by the subject and main verb of the clause along with another participial phrase modifying the subject (v. 9b). On this depend two purpose clauses (vv. 9c and 10a). The former is another compound clause; the latter is modified by a relative clause. These sentences are ornamented in various ways. V. 4 contains two of Paul’s seven new coinages, namely pareisavktou" yeudadevlfou". Both of these words are used metaphorically. The verb cognate to the former describes a military or political conspiracy (28); thus use of this term may present the false brothers in these terms. Calling them false brothers makes use of the metaphor of Christians as the family of God. Saying that the false brothers pareish'lqon kataskoph'sai uses the metaphor that they were engaged in infiltration and spying out (29).
