Exegesis
The perfect participle touto eidotes {τοῦτο εἰδότες | toû-to ei-dó-tes} functions causally (“since you know this”), with its object ton kairon {τὸν καιρόν | tón kai-rón} “the time,” defined by the content clause introduced by hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti}.
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 .
