Exegesis
The temporal trilogy semeron {σήμερον | sḗmeron} ‘today’, aurion {αὔριον | aúrion} ‘tomorrow’, and the dative phrase tē echomene {τῇ ἐχομένῃ | ekho-ménē} ‘on the following (day)’ form a tight sequence of advancing days.
In context — Luke 13:33
Nevertheless, it is necessary for Me to travel today, tomorrow, and the day following, because it is not possible for a prophet to perish outside Jerusalem.
