Exegesis
The phrase tines ton parestekoton {τινες τῶν παρεστηκότων | tí-nes tôn pa-res-tē-kó-tōn} ‘some of those standing by’ combines the indefinite pronoun tines as the grammatical subject with a partitive genitive construction ton parestekoton, where the perfect participle parestekoton from paristemi describes people who have taken their place and remain as bystanders.
In context — Mark 15:35
And some of those standing by, when they heard, were saying, “Behold, He calls Elijah .”
