Exegesis
The verse begins with the vav consecutive in vayittenu {וַיִּתְּנוּ | way-yit-tə-nu} ‘and they set’, a Qal imperfect verb that sequences the hostile action.
In context — Ezekiel 19:8
Then the nations gathered against him on every side from the provinces ; they cast their net over him, and he was caught in their pit.
