Exegesis
The verse opens with the prepositional phrase ek de tou ochlou {ἐκ δὲ τοῦ ὄχλου | ek de tou ó-chlos} ‘but from the crowd,’ foregrounding the crowd as the source of the action even as the subject of synebibasan {συνεβίβασαν | sy-ne-bí-basán} ‘they brought forward’ remains implicit.
The second clause begins with ho de Alexandros {ὁ δὲ Ἀλέξανδρος | ho dè A-lé-xan-dros}, shifting the narrative focus to Alexander himself.
