Exegesis
Estai {ἔσται | É-stai} functions as a future existential verb (“there will be”), taking two nominative substantives in parallel, ho klauthmos {ὁ κλαυθμὸς | ho klau-thmós} and ho brugmos ton odonton {ὁ βρυγμὸς τῶν ὀδόντων | ho bryg-mós tôn o-dón-tōn}, which depict emotional and physical torment. The repetition of the article ho before each noun creates a balanced, rhythmic structure that heightens the vividness of the scene. In translation, the two Greek clauses are rendered as two sentences to keep the sequence clear, while preserving the explicit noun phrases “weeping” and “gnashing of teeth” to maintain the traditional, concrete portrayal of judgment.
In context — Matthew 13:42
And they will throw them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
