LE-gōn kri-TÊS tis Ên EN ti-ni PO-lei ton the-ON MÊ pho-BOU-me-nos kai AN-thrō-pon MÊ en-tre-PO-me-nos
Exegesis
Two parallel participial phrases, tòn theón mḕ phoboúmenos {τὸν θεόν μὴ φοβούμενος | tòn the-ón mḕ pho-boú-me-nos} ‘not fearing God’ and kai ánthrōpon mḕ entrepómenos {καὶ ἄνθρωπον μὴ ἐντρεπόμενος | kaí án-thrō-pon mḕ en-tre-pó-me-nos} ‘and not showing regard for man’, characterize the judge. Both participles agree with kritēs and function attributively without an explicit relative pronoun. The sequence highlights the judge’s failure first toward divine obligation and then toward human relationships. In translation, the formal version renders the participles as relative clauses, while the dynamic version employs the correlative neither…nor to mirror the Greek emphasis and parallel structure.
In context — Luke 18:2
He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who had no fear of God and no respect for any person.”
