Exegesis
In that clause, pân {πᾶν | pân} 'all' intensifies scope, and the substantival to opheilómenon {τὸ ὀφειλόμενον | tò opheilómenon} 'the thing owed' specifies the full debt. In English, the participle is rendered as a finite verb to enhance readability, and the temporal condition maintains its subjunctive sense to reflect the open-ended nature of the obligation.
Root and etymology
