| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed aspect), active voice, subjunctive mood, second person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active subjunctive, second person plural, expresses a simple or undefined action viewed as potential or intended; "may see" reflects the subjunctive mood, while "see" preserves the core visual sense of ὁράω. |
