Exegesis
This is followed by two parallel prepositional phrases with eis {εἰς | eis} plus accusative, synedria {συνέδρια | synédria} ‘councils’ and synagogas {συναγωγὰς | synagōgás} ‘synagogues’, which specify the judicial and religious venues where this betrayal will occur.
In context — Mark 13:9
But watch yourselves; they will hand you over to councils, and in synagogues you will be beaten, and before governors and kings you will stand for My sake, as a testimony to them.
