Exegesis

The verse begins with the temporal conjunction hotan de paragenomai {ὅταν δὲ παραγένωμαι | hó-tan dè pa-ra-gé-no-mai} forming a future contingency, followed by the indefinite relative clause hous ean dokimasete {οὓς ἐὰν δοκιμάσητε | hoús e-án do-ki-má-sē-te}, which uses the aorist subjunctive to indicate any individuals approved after testing.
