Exegesis

Hote {ὅτε | hóte} introduces the temporal clause, and its subject hoi alēthinoi proskynetai {οἱ ἀληθινοὶ προσκυνηταὶ | hoi alēthinoi proskunētai} places the quality adjective before the noun to emphasize genuineness of worship.

In contextJohn 4:23

But the hour is drawing near—and now is here—when authentic worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, because the Father seeks people like these who worship Him.
