Exegesis
The interrogative tis {Τίς | Tís} introduces a direct question, functioning as the subject of the future verb apokylisei {ἀποκυλίσει | apokylísei} ‘will roll away,’ which carries a nuance of rolling something completely aside.
In context — Mark 16:3
And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb ?”
