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.
