Exegesis
The vocative Pater {Πάτερ | páter} creates immediate direct address, and the condition ei boulei {εἰ βούλει | ei boúlei} makes the request explicitly dependent on the Father’s willingness.
In context — Luke 22:42
Saying, “Father , if You consent, carry this cup away from Me; yet let not My will, but Yours, come to pass.”
