Exegesis
The verse opens with the nominative participial phrase hoi de kataxiōthentes {οἱ δὲ καταξιωθέντες | hoi dè kata-xi-ōthéntes} functioning substantivally as the subject, with the postpositive de marking a contrast with the preceding statement. The aorist passive participle presents the evaluation of worthiness as a completed judgment.
