Exegesis
The participial phrase mē pheron karpon {μὴ φέρον καρπὸν | mē phé-ron kar-pón} ‘not bearing fruit’ limits the first branch by its ongoing lack of fruitfulness, and the finite verb airei {αἴρει | aí-rei} ‘takes away’ states the main action with an implied subject supplied by the surrounding discourse.
In context — John 15:2
Every branch in Me that is not bearing fruit, He removes it; and every fruit-bearing branch He cleanses it so that it may bear more fruit.
