Exegesis
The interrogative prepositional phrase en poia exousia {ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ | en poí-ā ex-ou-sí-ā} ‘by what kind of authority’ functions as a content clause, and tauta poiō {ταῦτα ποιῶ | taû-ta poi-ô} ‘I do these things’ specifies the actions. The sequence of future indicative, imperative, and future indicative implies a conditional relationship, emphasizing logical progression.
In context — Mark 11:29
But Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question , and you answer Me; then I will tell you by what kind of authority I do these things.”
