Exegesis
The adverb houtōs {οὕτως | hoú-tōs} ‘thus’ introduces the typology of the Son of Man, where mellei paschein {μέλλει πάσχειν | mél-lei pás-khein} ‘is about to suffer’ conveys certainty and hyp’ autōn {ὑπʼ αὐτῶν | hyp’ au-tôn} indicates human agency.
In context — Matthew 17:12
But I say to you: Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him; rather, they treated him as they chose. Likewise, the Son of Man will also suffer at their hands.
