Exegesis
The purpose clause introduced by hina {ἵνα | hína} ‘so that’ with gnoi {γνοῖ | gnoî} ‘he might know’ clarifies his motive, while ti {τί | tí} ‘what’ leads into diepragmateusanto {διεπραγματεύσαντο | diepragmateúsanto} ‘they had gained by trading,’ which represents the evaluative outcome. The structure moves from temporal context to royal command, servant specification, and evaluative purpose, underscoring themes of stewardship and accountability.
In context — Luke 19:15
And when he returned after receiving the kingdom, he commanded that the servants be called to him—the ones to whom he had given the money —so that he could learn what they had gained by trading .
