Exegesis
The adverb hama {ἅμα | há-ma} ‘at the same time’ introduces a secondary sequence of participles, anentes {ἀνέντες | a-nén-tes} ‘having loosened’ and eparantes {ἐπάραντες | e-pá-ran-tes} ‘having hoisted’, which together outline coordinated preparations: unfastening zeuktērias tōn pēdalion {ζευκτηρίας τῶν πηδαλίων | zeuk-tē-rí-as tōn pē-da-lí-ōn} ‘fastenings of the rudders’ and raising artemōna {ἀρτέμωνα | ar-té-mō-na} ‘foresail’.
In context — Acts 27:40
After cutting away the anchors , they left them in the sea; at the same time, having loosened the rudder fastenings and hoisted the foresail to the blowing wind, they made for the beach .
