Exegesis
The verse begins with the conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} linking this saying to the preceding rebuke, followed by the temporal frame proi Sḗmeron {πρωΐ Σήμερον | prō-ï Sḗ-me-ron} indicating “in the morning, today.”
In context — Matthew 16:3
And in the morning you say, “Today there will be a storm, for the sky is red and threatening.” You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you are not able to interpret the signs of the times.
