Exegesis
The verse opens with the aorist verb anepausan {ἀνέπαυσαν | ané-pau-san} ‘they refreshed,’ followed by the explanatory conjunction gar {γὰρ | gàr} ‘for,’ which sets up the reason for the subsequent command. Paul’s expression of “the my spirit and the of-you” parallels two accusative noun phrases (tò emòn pneûma kai tò hēmōn) that underscore shared spiritual renewal.
In context — 1 Corinthians 16:18
For they have refreshed my spirit and yours; therefore recognize such as these .
