Exegesis

The accusative ten psychen autou {τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ | tēn psychḗn au-toû} indicates the total self-offering, depicted as lutron anti pollon {λύτρον ἀντὶ πολλῶν | lý-tron an-tí pol-lôn} ‘ransom for many’, emphasizing substitutionary redemption. English mirrors this structure with repeated infinitives and renders key theological terms to convey the mission of the Son of Man.

In contextMatthew 20:28

Just as the Son of Man did not come to receive service, but came to serve and to offer His life as a ransom for many.
