Exegesis
By contrast, gnōsē de meta tauta {γνώσῃ δὲ μετὰ ταῦτα | gnōsē de meta tauta} uses the future middle indicative to assure future insight, with de marking a gentle contrast. The temporal markers “at this time” and “after these things” preserve the Greek’s now/after contrast, while English word order is smoothed for natural reading.
In context — John 13:7
Jesus answered and said to him, “You do not understand what I am doing at this time, but after these things you will understand.”
