Exegesis
The aorist participle perithentes {περιθέντες | pe-ri-thén-tes} ‘having put around’ is circumstantial and temporally prior to the main verb prosēnenkan {προσήνεγκαν | pro-sḗ-neg-kan} ‘they brought’, so the Greek structure presents a sequence: first they place the sponge on the hyssop, then they bring it.
In context — John 19:29
Now a vessel full of sour wine was set there; so they placed a sponge filled with the sour wine on a hyssop stalk , and brought it to His mouth.
