c. of things future; then (at length) when the thing under discussion takes place (or shall have taken place): τότε simply, Mat 24:23; Mat 24:40; Mat 25:1; Mat 25:34; Mat 25:37; Mat 25:41; Mat 25:44 f; opposed to ἄρτι, 1Co 13:12; καί τότε, Mat 7:23; Mat 16:27; Mat 24:10; Mat 24:14; Mat 24:30; Mar 13:21; Mar 13:26; Luk 21:27; 1Co 4:5; Gal 6:4; 2Th 2:8; καί τότε preceded by πρῶτον, Mat 5:24; Mat 7:5; Luk 6:42. ὅταν (with a subjunctive present)... τότε, etc. when... then, etc. (Winer's Grammar, § 60, 5), 2Co 12:10; 1Th 5:3; ὅταν (with an aorist subjunctive equivalent to Latin future perfect)... τότε, etc., Mat 9:15; Mat 24:16; Mat 25:31; Mar 2:20; Mar 13:14; Luk 5:35; Luk 21:20; Joh 2:10 (T WH omit; L Tr brackets τότε);; 1Co 15:28; 1Co 15:54; 1Co 16:2; Col 3:4.

Evang., p. 293); rather, eighty-nine times according to R T, ninety times according to G L Tr WH); it is not found in (Ephesians, Philippians, Philemon, the Pastoral Epistles, the Epistles of John, James, Jude), Revelation.
