Exegesis

The balanced apodosis employs two passive indicatives, elegchetai {ἐλέγχεται | e-léng-khe-tai} ‘is convicted/exposed’ and anakrinetai {ἀνακρίνεται | a-na-krí-ne-tai} ‘is examined/called to account’, each governed by hupo panton {ὑπὸ πάντων | hy-pó pán-tōn} ‘by all’, underscoring both moral conviction and communal evaluation triggered by the collective prophecy.
