Exegesis
The final clause kaì pâs philōn kaì poiōn pseûdos {καὶ πᾶς φιλῶν καὶ ποιῶν ψεῦδος | kaì pâs philōn kaì poiōn pseûdos} shifts to a singular substantive pâs (everyone) with two present active participles, philōn and poiōn, governing pseûdos (falsehood) in the accusative. This construction highlights ongoing affection for and habitual practice of deceit, with pseûdos as the culminating vice.
