Exegesis
The nominative neuter nouns haima kai hydor {αἷμα καὶ ὕδωρ | haîma kai hý-dōr} “blood and water” function as the things that emerged, providing a vivid, almost forensic narrative detail. In translation, the instrumental phrase “with a spear” is placed after “side,” and “blood and water” are treated as the content that “came out” or “flowed out,” preserving the Greek sequence of agent, instrument, action, and immediate result.
