Exegesis
A contrast is then introduced with hoi de archiereis {οἱ δὲ ἀρχιερεῖς | hoi dè archiereîs}, where the conjunction de is attached to the article, marking a shift from Jesus’ ministry to the hostile response of the authorities.
Coordinated with this first subject are hoi grammateis and hoi protoi tou laou {οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ πρῶτοι τοῦ λαοῦ | hoi grammateîs kaì hoi prōtoi tou laou}, forming a compound subject that encompasses both religious and social leaders.
