Exegesis
The dative phrase tois mathetais sou {τοῖς μαθηταῖς σου | toîs mathētâis sou} functions as the complement of the verb, indicating those who are to be rebuked (‘Your disciples’), with sou highlighting their belonging to Him. This syntax underscores both the authority of Jesus as Teacher and the tension between the Pharisees and His followers.
In context — Luke 19:39
And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to Him , “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples .”
