Exegesis

The emphatic negative ou mḗ {οὐ μὴ | ou mḗ} with the future middle indicative estai {ἔσται | é-stai} creates “shall never” / “must not,” and the demonstrative touto {τοῦτο | toû-to} points back to Jesus’ predicted suffering. This structure preserves the temporal nuance, emotional urgency, and forceful denial in Peter’s rebuke.

Root and etymology

In contextMatthew 16:22

And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord ; this shall never happen to You.”
