Exegesis
The conditional protasis Ei kai pantes skandalisthēsontai {Εἰ καὶ πάντες σκανδαλισθήσονται | Ei kaí pán-tes skan-da-lis-thé-son-tai}, literally “if even all will stumble,” employs Ei with a future indicative verb to present a real, future-oriented condition. The particle kai intensifies pantes, stressing the breadth of possible failure (“even if absolutely everyone”). The verb skandalisthēsontai is future passive, portraying the disciples as being caused to stumble rather than purely initiating the action, which supports the nuance of external pressure or temptation.
In context — Mark 14:29
But Peter said to Him , “Even if all stumble , I will not.”
