Exegesis
The clause introduced by ean tis {ἐάν τις | e-án tis} forms a third-class conditional construction, indicating a potential future situation: “if anyone should say.”
In context — Mark 13:21
And then, if anyone says to you, “Look, here is the Christ ,” or, “Look, there He is,” do not believe it.
