Exegesis
The particle mē {μὴ | mē} immediately before the verb epelthē {ἐπέλθῃ | epélthē} introduces a negative purpose or warning clause, roughly “lest it should come upon,” with the aorist subjunctive signaling a potential but not yet realized outcome.
In context — Acts 13:40
Therefore, watch out , lest what has been spoken in the prophets should come upon you.
