Exegesis

The participle legontes {λέγοντες | légontes} ‘saying’ introduces direct speech, and the vocative didaskale {Διδάσκαλε | Didáskale} ‘Teacher’ frames Jesus as the one expected to provide clarification.

In contextLuke 21:7

So they put the question to Him , saying, “Teacher, when then will these things be, and what will the sign be when these things are about to happen?”
