Exegesis
Within this hina clause, mēdeis {μηδεὶς | mē-deís} ‘no one’ functions as the indefinite subject, and hymas {ὑμᾶς | hy-mâs} ‘you’ as the object of the verb paralogizētai {παραλογίζηται | pa-ra-lo-gí-zē-tai}. The subjunctive mood of paralogizētai, coordinated with hina, marks a potential but undesired outcome, emphasizing vigilance against a real possibility of deception.
In context — Colossians 2:4
I say this so that no one may deceive you with persuasive argument .
