Exegesis
The conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} introduces the temporal clause hotan elthē {ὅταν ἔλθῃ | hó-tan é-lthē}, where hotan plus aorist subjunctive conveys an indefinite future (“whenever he comes”).
In context — Revelation 17:10
And they are seven kings . The five have fallen, the one is, the other has not yet come; and whenever he comes, it is necessary for him to remain a little while.
