Exegesis
The phrase ex autôn {ἐξ αὐτῶν | ex autôn} ‘from them’ idiomatically means ‘some of them’, leading into two parallel clauses of future verbs: apokteneíte kaí staurṓsete {ἀποκτενεῖτε καὶ σταυρώσετε | apokteneíte kaí staurṓsete} ‘you will kill and crucify’, and mastigṓsete ...
In context — Matthew 23:34
Therefore, behold, I send to you prophets and wise men and scribes; some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city.
