Exegesis
The participle ginomenon {γινόμενον | ginómenon} is an accusative neuter agreeing with semeion, expanding it as “a sign being done,” while the prepositional phrase hup autou {ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ | hyp autoû} marks Jesus as the agent. The sequence of imperfects (en, elpizen), present participles (thelon, ginomenon), and infinitives (idein, akouein) weaves aspectual distinctions: longstanding desire, ongoing hope, and the anticipated but unrealized miraculous act.
In context — Luke 23:8
But when Herod saw Jesus , he was exceedingly glad, for he had been wanting for a long time to see Him, because he had heard about Him and was hoping to see some sign done by Him.
