Exegesis
The participle engizontes, modified by the adjective pantes {πάντες | pán-tes} ‘all,’ takes its constituents from the appositional phrase hoi telonai kai hoi hamartoloi {οἱ τελῶναι καὶ οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ | hoî te-lō-nai kaì hoî ha-mar-tō-loi}, which distinctly names tax collectors and sinners.
In context — Luke 15:1
Now all the tax collectors and the sinners were coming near to Him in order to hear Him.
