Exegesis
The predicate nominative thlipsis {θλῖψις | thlîpsis} ‘tribulation’ follows, creating the structure ‘those days will be tribulation’, which is then qualified by the relative clause hoia ou gegonen toiaute {οἵα οὐ γέγονεν τοιαύτη | hoía ou gégonen toiaútē} ‘such as has not been such’. This relative construction uses the perfect gégonen to stress that no comparable event has ever yet occurred.
In context — Mark 13:19
For those days will be a tribulation such as has not occurred from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be.
