Exegesis
Finally, the clause mēpote eklythōsin en tē hodō {μήποτε ἐκλυθῶσιν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ | mḗ-pote ek-lu-THŌ-sin en têi ho-DŌi} gives the feared result or negative purpose, “lest they might faint on the way,” with the prepositional phrase locating the danger during the journey home. The English renderings preserve this progression from Jesus’ inward compassion to His practical decision, and then to the potential consequence He seeks to prevent, thereby conveying both His emotional and physical care for the crowd.

In context — Matthew 15:32
