Exegesis
The correlative dè in Tò dè kathísai {Τὸ δὲ καθίσαι} introduces a contrast, with the articular infinitive kathísai {καθίσαι | ka-thí-sai} functioning as subject of ouk éstin emòn doû-nai {οὐκ ἔστιν ἐμὸν δοῦναι}, “it is not Mine to grant.”
In context — Matthew 20:23
He said to them, “You will indeed drink My cup, but to sit at My right hand and at My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father .”
