Exegesis

The article-participle phrase tōn eperchomenōn {τῶν ἐπερχομένων | tōn eperchoménōn} works substantivally, “the things coming,” and with tē oikoumenē {τῇ οἰκουμένῃ | tē oikouménē} marks the sphere affected, yielding the sense of events that break over the inhabited world.

In contextLuke 21:26

People will collapse from fear and expectation of what is coming upon the inhabited world , for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
