Exegesis
The subsequent phrase enōpion sou {ἐνώπιόν σου | en-ō-pi-ón sou} “before you” uses the genitive to stress personal accountability.
The adjective axios {ἄξιος | áx-i-os} “worthy” is complemented by the aorist passive infinitive klēthēnai {κληθῆναι | klē-thê-nai} “to be called,” with huios sou {υἱός σου | hu-i-ós sou} “your son” as the object, underscoring the loss of filial standing.
In context — Luke 15:21
But the son said to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your presence. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.”
