Part of Speech: Article, Preposition
Explanation: This word appears to be a misspelling or a concatenation of two separate Koine Greek words: 'ΤΟΙΣ' (tois) and 'ΚΑΤΑ' (kata). 'ΤΟΙΣ' is the dative plural form of the definite article 'the', used for masculine and neuter nouns. It indicates the indirect object of a verb or the recipient of an action. 'ΚΑΤΑ' is a versatile preposition that can mean 'down from', 'according to', 'against', or 'throughout', depending on the case of the noun it governs. In ancient Greek texts, these two words would typically appear separately.
Inflection: ΤΟΙΣ: Dative, Plural, Masculine or Neuter. ΚΑΤΑ: Does not inflect (preposition).
