Exegesis
The explanatory gar {γὰρ | gár} introduces the reason clause: pantes gar parastēsómetha {πάντες γὰρ παραστησόμεθα | pán-tes gar pa-ra-stē-só-me-tha}, with pantes in the emphatic first position to stress that “all” are involved, not just the addressee. The future middle parastēsómetha conveys the certainty of a coming appearance, likely with a nuance of being presented before a superior.
In context — Romans 14:10
But you, why do you judge your brother ? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God .
