Exegesis
In the apodosis, the interrogative pronoun tis {τίς | tís} ‘who’ governs the future verb dōsei {δώσει | dṓ-sei} ‘will give,’ and its object is the accusative phrase to hymeteron {τὸ ὑμέτερον | tò hy-mé-te-ron} ‘what is your own.’ The contrast between managing another’s affairs and receiving rightful possessions sharpens the logical argument, and the consistent second person plural forms underscore communal accountability in stewardship.
