Exegesis
The predicate adjective eutheton {εὔθετόν | eú-the-tón} precedes the verb estin {ἐστιν | és-tin} to form “it is not fit,” with the negation inherent in the correlative structure.
In context — Luke 14:35
It is not fit for the land or for the manure heap ; they throw it outside. The one who has ears to hear, let him hear.
