TOU-to de au-TOU la-LOUN-tos e-GE-ne-to STA-sis tôn pha-ri-SAI-ōn kai sad-dou-kai-ŌN kai e-SKHI-sthê to PLÊ-thos
Exegesis
The coordinating kai {καὶ | kaí} then links a second aorist clause, eschisthē to plēthos {ἐσχίσθη τὸ πλῆθος | es-khís-thē tò plê-thos} “the crowd was divided,” which presents the result of the preceding dissension in the wider group. English style prefers to convert the genitive absolute into a temporal subordinate clause (“as he was saying this” / “while he was saying this”) and the impersonal egeneto into more natural finite forms (“arose,” “broke out”), while keeping the sequence and cause–result relationship between the outbreak of party conflict and the division of the listening crowd.
Root and etymology
stom-sigma–tau–omicron–mu
“mouth, opening”
In context — Acts 23:7
But as he was saying this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the crowd was divided.
