Exegesis
This is further specified by the object phrase tous ta toiauta prassontas {τοὺς τὰ τοιαῦτα πράσσοντας | toús tà toi-aû-ta prás-son-tas}, “those practicing such things,” where the demonstrative toiauta points back to previously listed sins in the argument.
In context — Romans 2:3
But do you reckon this, O man, you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself, that you will escape the judgment of God ?
