KAI HO-tan te-les-THÊ ta KHI-li-a E-tê ly-THÊ-se-tai ho sa-ta-NAS ek tês phy-la-KÊS au-TOU
Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ek tes phylakes autou {ἐκ τῆς φυλακῆς αὐτοῦ | ek tēs phylakēs autou} uses ek to denote motion “out of,” with tes phylakes specifying the prison as the place of confinement and autou indicating possession. The temporal hotan-clause is rendered as “when the thousand years are completed/have finished,” preserving its subordinate function, and the passive voice of luthesetai correctly reflects that Satan is acted upon rather than acting for himself.
In context — Revelation 20:7
And when the thousand years are completed, Satan will be released out of his prison .
