Exegesis
The verse opens with ekraugasan {ἐκραύγασαν | ekraúgasan} ‘they cried out’, an aorist indicative that portrays a single, forceful outburst by the subject ekeinoi {ἐκεῖνοι | ekeînoi} ‘those’, a demonstrative that points to a specific, already-known group in the narrative.
In context — John 19:15
