Exegesis
The interrogative ti {τί | tí} “why” introduces a rhetorical question with peirazete {πειράζετε | pei-rá-ze-te} “are you testing” in the present active indicative addressing a plural audience.
In context — Acts 15:10
Now then, why are you testing God by setting a yoke on the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we had strength to bear?
