Exegesis
The clause begins with houtos {Οὗτος | Hoûtos} ‘this man,’ introducing a counterfactual condition with ei ēn {εἰ ἦν | ei ēn} ‘if he were’ and the imperfect eginōsken {ἐγίνωσκεν | egínōsken} ‘knew’ plus an {ἂν | ǎn} to convey potentiality.
In context — Luke 7:39
When the Pharisee who had invited Him saw it, he said within himself, “If this man were a prophet , He would know who and what kind of woman is touching Him, that she is a sinner.”
