Exegesis
The phrase autou tō stomati {αὐτοῦ τῷ στόματι | au-toû tôi stó-ma-ti} combines the genitive autou ‘of Him’ with the dative stomati ‘to the mouth’, specifying the target of the action as His mouth, with the genitive marking possession and the dative indicating the goal. In English, the participial construction is reshaped into coordinated finite verbs (“placed … and brought” / “put … and lifted”), and the dative of means with hyssop is rendered by a prepositional phrase (“on a hyssop stalk/branch”), preserving the sequence and instruments while conforming to natural subject–verb–object order.
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.
