        Comments: The phrase εἰ μὴ ὅταν is often translated as ‘until’ (for example, μηδενὶ ἅ εἶδον διηγήσωνταιεἰ μὴ ὅταν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ ‘not to tell anybody what they have seen until the Son of Man has risen from death’ {S:04100900900028}), but this phrase may be analyzed as meaning ‘if it is not when,’ an expression which is semantically equivalent to ‘until.’
