Exegesis
The two aorist passive imperatives ekrizōthēti {Ἐκριζώθητι | ek-ri-zṓ-thē-ti} ‘be uprooted’ and phyteuthēti {φυτεύθητι | phy-teú-thē-ti} ‘be planted’ form a vivid command sequence, with the prepositional phrase en tē thalassē {ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ | en tê tha-lás-sē} ‘in the sea’ providing an impossible location that underlines the miraculous scope.
In context — Luke 17:6
And the Lord said, "If you have faith like a mustard seed, you would say to this sycamine tree, 'Be uprooted and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you."
