Exegesis
The apodosis centers on pantas {πάντας | pán-tas} ‘all’ as the direct object of the future indicative helkysō {ἑλκύσω | hel-ký-sō} ‘I will draw’, so that the drawing is presented as a certain, purposeful result of the lifting up.
Root and etymology
helkōepsilon–lambda–kappa–omega
“to draw, pull”
In context — John 12:32
And I , if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all to Myself.
