Exegesis
The present indicative tauta poiēis {ταῦτα ποιεῖς | taû-ta poi-eîs} ‘you are doing these things’ refers to Jesus’ recent actions in the temple.
The purpose clause hina tauta poiēs {ἵνα ταῦτα ποιῇς | hína taû-ta poi-éis} ‘so that you might do these things’ tightly links the granting of authority to Jesus’ actions, emphasizing cause and intended effect.
In context — Mark 11:28
And they were saying to Him , “By what authority are You doing these things? Or who gave You this authority, that You should do these things?”
