Exegesis
In that clause, elathon {ἔλαθον | élathon} is used idiomatically with the participle xenísantes {ξενίσαντες | xenísantes}; literally “having shown hospitality, they escaped notice,” that is, they did not realize what they were doing.
In context — Hebrews 13:2
Do not neglect hospitality , for through this, some have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
