Exegesis
Two accusative objects define what is removed: panta ta skandala {πάντα τὰ σκάνδαλα | pán-ta tá skán-da-la}, “all the stumbling blocks,” using panta to stress totality, and tous poiountas ten anomian {τοὺς ποιοῦντας τὴν ἀνομίαν | toús poioûn-tas tḕn a-no-mí-an}, a substantival participial phrase meaning “those who are doing lawlessness,” portraying ongoing practice rather than isolated acts.
In context — Matthew 13:41
The Son of Man will send His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks and those who practice lawlessness.
