Exegesis
The verse opens with the participial clause ho de emblepsas autois {ὁ δὲ ἐμβλέψας αὐτοῖς | ho dè em-BLÉP-sas au-TOIS}, where the article ho functions substantivally as “he,” joined with the postpositive de to mark a contrastive progression in the narrative.
In context — Luke 20:17
But after looking intently at them, He said, “What then is this that is written , ‘The stone which the builders rejected, this one has become the head of the corner?’”
