Exegesis
Within this clause, the intransitive aorist verb egeneto {ἐγένετο | egéneto} combines with the subject phrase he hora {ἡ ὥρα | hē hṓ-ra} to form an idiom meaning “the hour came,” signaling a decisive, appointed time.
In context — Luke 22:14
And when the hour came, He reclined, and the apostles were with Him.
