Exegesis
The dative phrase tois geōrgois ekeinois {τοῖς γεωργοῖς ἐκείνοις | toîs ge-ōr-go-is e-ke-í-nois} ‘to those farmers’ designates the intended recipients. English places the temporal clause first and renders the emphatic question in subject–verb–object order while preserving the Greek focus.
In context — Matthew 21:40
Therefore, when the master of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers ?
