Exegesis
The verse consists of a single relative clause introduced by the prepositional phrase en hais {ἐν αἷς | en haîs} “in which,” whose dative plural feminine pronoun refers back to previously mentioned days or situations, so the clause is circumstantial.
The second prepositional phrase en to hiero {ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ | en tôi hi-e-rō̂} specifies location within the temple precincts and is tightly linked to the finding event.
Root and etymology
