Exegesis
The temporal dative phrase tē eschatē hēmera {τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ | tê es-khá-tē hē-mé-rā} “on the last day” situates the resurrection in an eschatological framework. The English renderings preserve the explanatory force of hina with “that,” maintain the substantival participles as relative clauses (“everyone who beholds/looks to”), and keep the future promise of resurrection explicit and personal.
Root and etymology
hēmeraeta–mu–epsilon–rho–alpha

In context — John 6:40
For this is the will of My Father , that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.
