Exegesis
The future indicative akousousin {ἀκούσουσιν | akoúsousin} ‘they will hear’ asserts certainty rather than mere possibility, with the genitive phrase tēs phōnēs autou {τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ | tēs phōnēs autoû} ‘the voice of Him’ expressing the powerful agency that initiates resurrection. English preserves the prohibition, the causal hoti clause as “for/because,” and the temporal relative clause as “when,” maintaining the flow from command to explanation and from present attitude to future divine action.
