Exegesis
The final prepositional phrase emprosthen tou huiou tou anthrōpou {ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου | ém-pros-then tou huioû tou anthrṓpou} places the scene in direct personal accountability, echoing Danielic son-of-man imagery and presenting the final audience before whom the faithful must appear.
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 .
