Exegesis
The copula estin {ἐστιν | es-tín} ‘it is’ introduces the comparison, while the accusative kamelon {κάμηλον | ká-mē-lon} ‘camel’ functions as the logical subject of the infinitive dielthein {διελθεῖν | di-el-theîn} ‘to go through’.
In context — Mark 10:25
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of the needle than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God .
