Exegesis
The conjunction nyn gar {νῦν γὰρ | nŷn gàr} shifts focus to the present and introduces a comparative clause with engyteron {ἐγγύτερον | engý-te-ron} modifying the implied verb and hē sōtēria hemon {ἡ σωτηρία ἡμῶν | hē sō-tē-rí-a hē-môn} marking “our salvation” in relation to the past temporal clause hote episteusamen {ὅτε ἐπιστεύσαμεν | hó-te e-pi-steú-sa-men}. The translation renders the participle as a finite clause, supplies the implied copula, and preserves the comparative urgency.
In context — Romans 13:11
And do this, understanding the time: it is already the hour for you to be awakened from sleep; for now our salvation is closer than when we believed .
