Exegesis
The conjunction hina {ἵνα | hína} introduces a purpose clause hinging on anablepso {ἀναβλέψω | a-na-blép-sō} ‘that I may receive sight again,’ expressing the man’s specific request as the intended outcome of the Lord’s action. In English the question is rendered in natural order and the hina clause as a purpose expression “that I may…,” preserving the sense of dependent petition conveyed by the aorist subjunctive.
In context — Luke 18:41
“What do you want me to do for you?” And he said, “Lord , that I may see again .”
