Exegesis
The coordinated clause kaí pántes zēlōtaí toû nómou hypárchousin {καὶ πάντες ζηλωταὶ τοῦ νόμου ὑπάρχουσιν | kaí pántes zēlōtaí toû nómou hypárchousin} uses pantes as the subject with hyparchousin as an existential verb, affirming that all in that group are “zealous for the law.” In translation, the participial clause is rendered as a temporal clause, and the existential statement is conveyed as “are,” preserving both temporal nuance and emphatic universal zeal.
In context — Acts 21:20
But when they heard this, they were glorifying God , and they said to him, “Brother, you see how many myriads of Jews have believed, and all are zealous for the law.”
