Exegesis
The verse features two coordinated clauses linked by kaí {καὶ | kaí}, beginning with the emphatic negation ou mē timḗsei {οὐ μὴ τιμήσει | ou mē timḗsei}. This double negative placed up front intensifies the denial of the filial duty “honor.”
Root and etymology
timaōtau–iota–mu–alpha–omega
“to honor, value”
In context — Matthew 15:6
He absolutely will not honor his father, and you have nullified the word of God because of your tradition .
