Exegesis
The object phrase tauta panta ta mellonta ginesthai {ταῦτα πάντα τὰ μέλλοντα γίνεσθαι | taûta pán-ta ta mél-lon-ta gí-nes-thai} intensifies the crisis by combining demonstrative force, totality, and imminence, effectively saying ‘all these things that are about to happen.’
In context — Luke 21:36
But stay awake at all times, praying so that you may prevail to escape all these things that are about to happen, and to stand before the Son of Man .
