<excerpt>What type of nominative is used for DIDASKALOS in APO QEOU
ELHLUQAS DIDASKALOS in John 3:2?

This is a predicate nominative, which is to say, it functions
adverbially with ELHLUQAS: "You have come from God AS A TEACHER." It
agrees, of course, with the implicit nominative subject SU in the
verb.
