Exegesis
The aorist participle akousas {ἀκούσας | akoúsas} functions as a circumstantial participle, indicating prior cause (“after hearing these words”) and modifying the subject Pilatos {Πιλᾶτος | Pilâtos}.
In context — John 19:13
Therefore Pilate, after hearing these words, brought Jesus outside and sat down on the judgment seat in a place called Lithostroton , but in Hebrew it is Gabbatha.
