Luke 13:26

This verse is viewed by many as the apodosis of a long sentence beginning with ἀφʼ οὗ (Luke 13:25), and the emotional character of the passage, in which parable and moral are blended, goes far to justify them. But it is better on the whole to find here a new start. ἐνώπιόν σου, before thee, either, as thy guests or hosts (Capernaum feast, dinners in the houses of Pharisees), i.e., with thee; or. under thine eve involving a claim simply of neighbourhood. The former is the more likely, because it puts the case more strongly in their favour.
