Exegesis
The subject of this clause is to euangelion {τὸ εὐαγγέλιον | tó eu-ag-gé-li-on}, and the prepositional phrase eis holon ton kosmon {εἰς ὅλον τὸν κόσμον | eis hó-lon tón kós-mon} intensifies the scope to “into the whole world,” emphasizing worldwide reach.
In context — Mark 14:9
Truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in all the world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of, for a memorial of her.
