Exegesis
The coordinating kai {καὶ | kaí} connects the plea to the servant’s future promise marked by the verb apodoso {ἀποδώσω | apodṓsō} ‘I will repay’, with the accusative panta {πάντα | pánta} ‘all things’ preposed for emphasis, and the dative soi {σοι | soi} ‘to you’ indicating the recipient. This structure highlights the servant’s humiliating posture followed by an urgent petition and a vow of full restitution.
In context — Matthew 18:26
Therefore the servant , having fallen down, was prostrating himself before him, saying, “Have patience with me, and I will repay everything to you.”
