Exegesis
In the parable introduction, anthrōpos tis {Ἄνθρωπός τις | án-thrō-pos tis} uses the indefinite pronoun tis to present an unnamed “certain man,” a narrative device focusing on role over identity.
In context — Luke 14:16
But He said to him, “A certain man was making a great supper and invited many.”
