Exegesis
A new segment of direct discourse follows without an explicit verb of speaking, with the aorist active participle anastas {Ἀναστάς | Anastás} “having arisen” functioning as an attendant circumstance to the subsequent imperatives thuson {θῦσον | thŷson} and phage {φάγε | pháge}. This structure presents a sequence of actions commanded in rapid succession: first a change of posture (“rise”), then the act of slaughter, and finally eating.
In context — Acts 10:13
And a voice came to him, “Rise, Peter , kill , and eat.”
