Exegesis

The circumstantial participle phoron {φορῶν | phorōn} presents the manner/attendant circumstance of His coming out, with two coordinated accusative objects, ton akanthinon stephanon kai to porphyroun himation {τὸν ἀκάνθινον στέφανον καὶ τὸ πορφυροῦν ἱμάτιον | tón akánthinon stéphanon kaì tò porphyroûn himátion}, whose repeated article + adjective + noun pattern foregrounds the deliberate, ironic “royal” costuming.
