Conjunctions: when, whenever, after, before (ὅτε, ὅταν)

Examples: “When you fast, do not look gloomy” (Matt. 6:16 ESV). “Count it all joy, my brothers, whenever you encounter various trials” (James 1:2, my trans.).

7. Locative. Locative propositions indicate the place in which the action occurs or the place where the action is operative. Consider the following: “Where one sees vultures, one will find a dead body.” The locative clause informs us where vultures will be: near a corpse. Locative clauses, like temporal ones, can also have an implicit causal idea. For example, Ruth said to Naomi, “Where you go, I will go” (Ruth 1:16 NRSV). This is a locative clause, but it is also clear that Ruth will go because Naomi goes. Nonetheless, the author emphasizes here location rather than cause. It is used in locative clauses.
