Exegesis
The participle hestos {ἑστὸς | hestōs} qualifies the abomination as already 'standing.' The locative prepositional phrase en topōi hagiōi {ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ | en tó-pō-i ha-gí-ō-i} identifies the setting in the holy place.
In context — Matthew 24:15
Therefore, whenever you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken through Daniel the prophet , standing in the holy place, let the one reading understand .
