Exegesis
The purpose clause hina mē paradothō tois Ioudaiois {ἵνα μὴ παραδοθῶ τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις | hína mē paradothō tois Ioudaíois} explains the intended result of that hypothetical struggle, namely preventing Jesus’ being handed over.
In context — John 18:36
Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not derived from this world. If My kingdom were derived from this world, My servants would have fought so that I would not be handed over to the Jews. But now My kingdom is not from here.”
