Exegesis
The construction ho men huios tou anthropou {ὁ μὲν υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου | ho men huï-ós tou anth-rṓ-pou} uses the particle men to set up one side of an implicit contrast, with the title ‘Son of Man’ functioning as the subject.
The relative clause di hou ho huios tou anthropou paradidotai {διʼ οὗ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου παραδίδοται | di' hoû ho huï-ós tou anth-rṓ-pou pa-ra-dí-do-tai} further defines that man as the channel ‘through whom’ the Son of Man ‘is being betrayed’, with the present passive paradidotai highlighting the unfolding act and maintaining focus on the Son of Man as the one handed over.
Root and etymology
huiosupsilon–iota–omicron–sigma
“son, male descendant”
In context — Mark 14:21
For the Son of Man indeed goes just as it has been written about Him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed; it would have been good for him if that man had not been born.
