Exegesis

The aorist participle labon {λαβών | labṓn} ‘having received’ functions adverbially to mark the reception of the parangelian {παραγγελίαν | pa-rang-ge-lí-an} ‘order’ as the cause for the subsequent actions.

In contextActs 16:24

Having received such an order , he confined them to the inner prison and secured their feet to the stocks .
