Exegesis

The accusative autou in kleronomia autou {κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ | klerōnomían authoû} ‘his inheritance’ marks the object of their intended appropriation. The use of the subjunctive mood underscores the deliberative and persuasive force of their murderous design.

In contextMatthew 21:38

But the farmers, upon seeing the son, said among themselves, “This is the heir . Come, let us kill him and seize the inheritance .”
