Exegesis
The dative recipient ethnēi {ἔθνει | éth-nei} ‘to a nation’ is modified by the participle poiounti {ποιοῦντι | poi-oûn-ti} ‘producing,’ with the accusative direct object tous karpous {τοὺς καρποὺς | toùs kar-poùs} ‘the fruits’ and the genitive autēs {αὐτῆς | au-tês} ‘of it’ referring back to the kingdom. This construction underscores the covenant expectation of fruitfulness, and its passive transfer communicates both judgment for unfruitfulness and grace for responsive faith.
Root and etymology
“fruit, result”
In context — Matthew 21:43
Because of this, I say to you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and will be given to a nation producing its fruits .
