Exegesis
That moment arrives when ho kataklusmos {ὁ κατακλυσμός | kataklūsmós} ‘the flood’ ēlthen {ἦλθεν | ḗlthen} ‘came’ and then ēren {ἦρεν | ḗren} ‘carried away’ hapantas {ἅπαντας | hápantas} ‘all’ in a forceful transitive action.
In context — Matthew 24:39
And they did not know until the flood came and took them all away ; in this way also will be the coming of the Son of Man .
