Greek: ινα εις τα εθνη η ευλογια του Αβρααμ γενηται εν Ιησου Χριστω, ινα την επαγγελιαν του Πνευματος λαβωμεν δια της πιστεως. Key parsing — THE DOUBLE HINA CLAUSE: - First ινα: "in order that" — purpose clause #1 - η ευλογια του Αβρααμ (eulogia tou Abraam) — "the blessing of Abraham" — Nom Sg F - γενηται (ginomai G1096) — Aor Mid Subj 3S: "might come/happen" - εις τα εθνη: "unto the Gentiles" — direction/recipient - εν Ιησου Χριστω: "in Jesus Christ" — sphere/instrumentality - Second ινα: "in order that" — purpose clause #2 - την επαγγελιαν του Πνευματος (epangelian tou Pneumatos) — "the promise of the Spirit" — Acc Sg F - λαβωμεν (lambanō G2983) — Aor Act Subj 1P: "we might receive" - δια της πιστεως: "through the faith" — means/instrument

Critical grammatical observation: Both hina-clauses depend on the same main clause (3:13 — "Christ redeemed us from the curse"). The curse-redemption has a DOUBLE purpose: (a) Abrahamic blessing reaches Gentiles, and (b) we receive the Spirit's promise through faith. These are not sequential but simultaneous results of the same redemptive act.
