Exegesis
The conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} links this with the second aorist verb edesan {ἔδησαν | é-dē-san} ‘they bound’, whose object is the pronoun auto {αὐτὸ | au-tò} ‘it’, further specified by the dative othoniois {ὀθονίοις | o-tho-ní-ois} ‘in linen cloths’ and the prepositional phrase meta ton aromaton {μετὰ τῶν ἀρωμάτων | me-tà tôn a-rō-má-tōn} ‘with the spices’.
In context — John 19:40
So they took the body of Jesus , and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, just as it is the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial.
