Exegesis

The relative clause hoi esontai protoi {οἳ ἔσονται πρῶτοι | hoí é-son-tai prô-toi} predicts that these will “be first.”

The second clause mirrors this chiastic pattern, with protoi {πρῶτοι | prô-toi} “first” followed by the parallel relative clause hoi esontai eschatoi {οἳ ἔσονται ἔσχατοι | hoí é-son-tai és-kha-toi} “who will be last.” This structure underscores the radical inversion of social rank envisioned by Jesus.
