Exegesis

The core assertion is framed by the clause Ouk estin kalon {Οὐκ ἔστιν καλὸν | Ouk éstin kalón}, where the predicate adjective kalon stands in the nominative neuter singular with the verb “to be,” presenting a general evaluative statement, “it is not good/right.”

In contextMatthew 15:26

But He answered and said, “It is not right to take the bread of the children and to throw it to the little dogs .”
