Exegesis
The nominative subjects ho heis {ὁ εἷς | ho heîs} and ho heteros {ὁ ἕτερος | ho hé-te-ros}, paired with the passive verbs paralemphthesetai {παραλημφθήσεται | pa-ra-lēm-phthḗ-se-tai} “will be taken” and aphethisetai {ἀφεθήσεται | a-phe-thḗ-se-tai} “will be left,” underscore a divinely effected separation within a unified setting.
