Exegesis
The fronted accusative phrase tous echthrous mou toutous {τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου τούτους | toùs ekh-throús mou toútous} places emphasis on a specific group through the demonstrative and positions them as the direct objects of the subsequent commands.
The participial clause tous mē thelēsantas me basileusai epʼ autous {τοὺς μὴ θελήσαντάς με βασιλεῦσαι ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς | toùs mē the-lḗ-san-tas me basileû-sai epʼ autoùs} functions attributively, expressing a decisive refusal of the nobleman’s authority.
In context — Luke 19:27
But as for these enemies of mine, those who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.
