Exegesis
The hina {ἵνα | hí-na} ‘so that’ clause governs two subjunctives—pathē {πάθῃ | pá-thē} ‘he may suffer’ and exoudenēthē {ἐξουδενηθῇ | ex-ou-de-nē-thê} ‘he may be treated with contempt’—underscoring that the Son-of-Man’s suffering and rejection are divinely ordained rather than incidental. The contrast between Elijah’s promise of restoration and the Son-of-Man’s necessary humiliation brings theological tension to the fore.

And He said to them, “Elijah does come first and restores all things; then why is it written concerning the Son of Man that He must suffer many things and be despised?”
