Exegesis
The adverb ekeî {ἐκεῖ | e-keî} “there” indicates the corresponding location, and the future passive episynachthēsontai {ἐπισυναχθήσονται | e-pi-su-nach-thē-son-tai} “‘will be gathered’” describes the inevitable result with hoi aetoì {οἱ ἀετοὶ | hoi ae-toí} “the eagles” as the semantic agents, evoking carrion-bird imagery to underscore the concept of judgment.
