Exegesis
The concluding clause kai hypēkousen an hymin {καὶ ὑπήκουσεν ἂν ὑμῖν | kaì hu-pḗ-kou-sen án hū-mîn} uses the aorist indicative with an to depict a result that would certainly follow in this hypothetical scenario: ‘and it would obey you.’ The overall syntax presents even the smallest genuine faith as participating in the Lord’s authoritative word, capable of commanding creation.
In context — Luke 17:6
And the Lord said, "If you have faith like a mustard seed, you would say to this sycamine tree, 'Be uprooted and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you."
