Exegesis
The adversative all {ἀλλʼ | all} introduces the counter-principle, followed by a generic relative construction hos an thelei {ὃς ἂν θέλῃ | hos an thé-lē} “whoever would wish,” where an {ἂν | an} with the subjunctive creates an open-ended, conditional sense.
In context — Mark 10:43
But it is not so among you; rather, whoever wishes to become great among you will be your servant .
