Exegesis
The adverb eukaírōs {εὐκαίρως | eukaírōs} modifies the aorist subjunctive paradoî {παραδοῖ | paradoî} “he might deliver,” forming a purpose clause that emphasizes the calculated, timely nature of the intended betrayal. In English, the aorist participle became “when/after they heard,” the imperfect as “was seeking/began looking,” and the subjunctive with eukaírōs as “hand Him over at an opportune moment” and “hand Him over at a good chance,” retaining both sequence and nuance of deliberation in the plot.
In context — Mark 14:11
But when they heard, they rejoiced and promised to give him money, and he was seeking how he might hand Him over at an opportune moment .
