μαθητής. μαθητής G3101 [N-NSM] Nom Sg M
Key observations: - μισεῖ (misei, G3404) = Present Active Indicative: "does not hate" - G3404 μισέω = "to detest, hate" — strong word used in conditional statement - Εἴ τις (ei tis) = first-class conditional: "if anyone" — assumes the condition is met - The list: father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, and even his own life (ψυχή, psychē) - οὐ δύναται εἶναί μου μαθητής = "cannot be my disciple" — absolute statement - Compare Mat 10:37 which uses "more than me" (ὑπὲρ ἐμέ) instead of "hate" — the parallel illuminates the Semitic use of "hate" as comparative preference
