<div><font color="#007700">The classical construction is a simpler
one with hOUTWS or some other qualitative or quantitative adverbial
expression (e.g. TOSOUTOS/H/O or TOIOUTOS/H/O either modifying the
verb or an adjective or another verb in the main clause and a hWSTE
introducing either a finite verb clause (for an ACTUAL result) or an
infinitive (for a NATURAL or PROBABLE result). There are also some
less frequent variants to this pattern. Cf. Smyth's grammar,
##2273-2278.<br>
(http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/tex
></span>t?lookup=smyth+2273&vers=english&browse=1<span
></span>) and LSJ hOUTWS III<br>
(http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/lex
></span>index?lookup=ou(/tws&lang=greek)<br>
<br>
In the GNT the pattern is less consistent; there may be hWSTE as in
John 3:16 or in Acts 14:1 (EGENETO DE IN IKONIWi KATA TO AUTO
EISELQEIN AUTOUS EIS THN SUNAGWGHN TWN IOUDAIWN KAI LALHSAI h O U T W
S h W S T E PISTEUSAI IOUDAIWN TE KAI hELLHNWN POLU
PLHQOS. = "And it happened in Iconium at the same time that
they entered into the synagogue of the Jews and spoke such that a
sizable throng of both Jews and Greeks came to faith.") or Matthew
15:33 (KAI LEGOUSIN AUTWi hOI MAQHTAI: POQEN hHMIN EN ERHMIAi
ARTOI T O S O U T O I h W S T E CORTASAI OCLON
TOSOUTON. = "And his disciples say to him, 'Where do we have in
the wilderness loaves sufficient to feed a crowd this
large?'")<br>
<br>
or there may be a hOPWS clause, as in Matthew 5:16 (h O U T W S
LAMYATW TO FWS hUMWN EMPROSQEN TWN ANQRWPWN, h O P W S IDWSIN hUMWN
TA KALA ERGA KAI DOXASWSIN TON PATERA hUMWN TON EN TOIS
OURANOIS, = "Let your light so shine before people that they
see your good works and glorify your father in heaven.")<br>
<br>
or there may be a relative clause functioning to indicate the result,
as in 1 Cor 6:5 (h O U T W S OUK ENI EN hUMIN OUDEIS S O
F O S, h O S DUNHSETAI DIAKRINAI ANA MESON TOU ADELFOU AUTOU? =
"Is there nobody so wise amongst you that he won't be able to
judge a matter?")</font><br>
