Luke 17:1-4

Concerning offences and forgiving of offences (cf. Matthew 18:6-7; Matthew 21:22). ἀνένδεκτον : here only in N.T. and hardly found in classics; with ἐστι = οὐκ ἐνδέχεται (Luke 13:33), it is not possible. τοῦ μὴ ἐλθεῖν : the infinitive with the genitive article may depend on ἀνένδεκτον viewed as a substantive = an impossibility of offences not coming exists (Meyer, J. Weiss), or it may be the subject to ἐστι, ἀνεν. being the predicate = that offences should not come is impossible (Schanz; Burton, M. and T., inclines to the same view, vide § 405).
