Exegesis
This state is specified further by the participial phrase mē blepōn ton hēlion {μὴ βλέπων τὸν ἥλιον | mḗ blépōn tón hḗ-lion}, in which the present participle indicates the ongoing result of the judgment: continued inability to see the sun.
In context — Acts 13:11
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind, not seeing the sun until a season. Immediately, then, mist and darkness fell upon him, and going about, he was seeking those to lead him by the hand.
