Exegesis
The aorist imperative akousato {ἀκουσάτω | akousátō} ‘let him hear’ functions as a decisive command, calling for a definite, effective act of listening that implies obedience. The word order moves from the conditional clause to the main imperative clause, creating a rhetorical structure where the stated capacity (“has an ear”) leads directly to the demanded response (“let him hear”), highlighting responsibility to respond to revelation.
In context — Revelation 13:9
If anyone has an ear , let him hear .
