Exegesis
The main verb ekousan {ἤκουσαν | ḗ-kou-san} ‘they heard’ introduces the subject hoi duo mathetai autou {οἱ δύο μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ | hoi dú-o ma-thē-taí au-toû} ‘the two disciples of him’, where the article hoi marks a specific group, duo specifies their number, mathetai identifies them as disciples, and autou in the genitive forms a possessive relationship, referring back to John.
In context — John 1:37
And the two disciples of him heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus .
