Exegesis

The temporal prepositional phrase akhri kairou {ἄχρι καιροῦ | ákhri kairoû} sets a limit on the judgment, signaling that the blindness is divinely bounded to a particular “season” or appointed time.

In contextActs 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.
