Exegesis
The present active subjunctive propheteuosin {προφητεύωσιν | pro-phe-teú-o-sin} ‘they prophesy’ denotes ongoing inspired speech, while the aorist subjunctive eiselthe {εἰσέλθῃ | ei-sél-thē} ‘should enter’ anticipates the arrival of tis {τις | tis} ‘someone’, described as apistos {ἄπιστος | á-pis-tos} ‘unbeliever’ or idiotes {ἰδιώτης | i-di-ō-tēs} ‘outsider’.
In context — 1 Corinthians 14:24
But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or outsider enters, he is exposed by everyone and is examined by all.
