Exegesis
A second coordinated future verb, klēronomēsei {κληρονομήσει | klē-ro-no-mḗ-sei}, governs the object zōēn aiōnion {ζωὴν αἰώνιον | zō-ḗn ai-ṓ-ni-on}, “eternal life,” using inheritance language to frame the ultimate reward as a permanent, divinely granted share in the life of the coming age. The syntax thus moves from the universal subject, through the cost of discipleship, to a twofold promise of abundant present recompense and final eschatological inheritance.
