Exegesis
This temporal idea is intensified by the clause achris hou to Sēmeron kaleitai {ἄχρις οὗ τὸ Σήμερον καλεῖται | áchris hoû tò Sḗmeron kaleîtai}, literally ‘until which the “Today” is called,’ a temporal relative construction that frames the whole present era as a limited window of response.
In context — Hebrews 3:13
But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin .
