Exegesis

The main clause, katebē houtos dedikaiomenos eis ton oikon autou {κατέβη οὗτος δεδικαιωμένος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ | ka-té-bē hoú-tos de-di-kai-ō-mé-nos eis ton oi-kon au-toû}, combines an aorist indicative with a perfect passive participle. This pairing suggests a completed act of justification preceding the descent, with the participle functioning adjectivally to describe houtos “this one.”

In contextLuke 18:14

I tell you, this one went down to his house justified , rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.
