Exegesis
A nested purpose clause begins with hopos {ὅπως | hó-pōs} ‘so that,’ taking the aorist middle subjunctive diamartyrētai {διαμαρτύρηται | di-a-már-ty-rē-tai} ‘he may testify’ with its dative indirect object autois {αὐτοῖς | au-toîs} ‘to them,’ highlighting a formal attestation.
In context — Luke 16:28
For I have five brothers, so that he may testify to them, so that they also may not come into this place of torment .
