Exegesis
The article to {τὸ | to} with theros {θέρος | thé-ros} gives the season a simple substantive force, and estin {ἐστίν | es-tín} completes the assertion of nearness. English rendering smooths the participial structure into natural observation language while preserving the verse’s logic of visible sign leading to sure knowledge.
In context — Luke 21:30
When they have already put forth , seeing for yourselves, you know that the summer is already near.
