Exegesis
The temporal adverbs sēmeron kai aurion {σήμερον καὶ αὔριον | sḗ-me-ron kaí aú-ri-on} define a two-day period, and the final temporal dative clause tē tritē teleioumai {τῇ τρίτῃ τελειοῦμαι | trí-tē te-lei-oû-mai} uses a dative time marker with a futuristic present to assert assured completion on the third day despite opposition.
In context — Luke 13:32
And He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and will accomplish cures today and tomorrow, and on the third day I reach completion.’”
