Exegesis
The dative hekastō {ἑκάστῳ | he-kás-tō} specifies each individual as an indirect object, and the accusative phrase kata tēn praxin autou {κατὰ τὴν πρᾶξιν αὐτοῦ | katá tēn prâ-xin au-toû} states the normative standard, linking reward to each person’s deed. The two-stage sequence “coming in glory” then “rewarding according to deeds” mirrors the Greek discourse flow and underscores both eschatological arrival and personal accountability.
In context — Matthew 16:27
For the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each person according to his deed.
