Exegesis
The narrative sequence elthen {ἦλθεν | ēlthén} ‘he came’ and heuren {εὗρεν | heurén} ‘he found’ marks the search, with ouden {οὐδὲν | ou-dén} ‘nothing’ narrowed by the conditional clause ei me phulla monon {εἰ μὴ φύλλα μόνον | ei mē phú-lla món-on} ‘if not only leaves’.
The main verb legei {λέγει | lé-gei} ‘he says’ introduces a performative declaration using the negative adverb meketi {Μηκέτι | mē-ké-ti} ‘no longer’ with the aorist middle subjunctive genetai {γένηται | gé-nē-tai} in mēketi ek sou karpos genetai eis ton aiona {Μηκέτι ἐκ σοῦ καρπὸς γένηται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα | mē-ké-ti ek sou kar-pós gé-nē-tai eis ton ai-ō-na} ‘May fruit never again come from you into the age’.
