Exegesis
The future passive indicative katargethesetai {καταργηθήσεται | katargēthḗsetai} 'will be abolished, rendered inoperative' marks a decisive eschatological transition: once the complete state arrives, the partial is not merely improved but brought to an end. The word order places to teleion early for emphasis on the coming completeness, and then to ek merous just before the verb, highlighting the destiny of the partial. In translation, the temporal structure 'when ... comes, ... will be abolished' preserves the Greek protasis–apodosis relationship, while substantival renderings 'the perfect' and 'the partial' or 'what is complete' and 'what is partial' maintain the contrast between the two states.
In context — 1 Corinthians 13:10
But when the perfect comes, the partial will be abolished.
