Exegesis
The direct object ton ependutēn {τὸν ἐπενδύτην | tòn e-pen-dý-tēn} “the outer garment” precedes the verb diezōsato {διεζώσατο | di-e-zó-sa-to} “he girded around himself,” an idiomatic middle-voice expression meaning that he secured his mantle to be ready for movement.
In context — John 21:7
Therefore the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord .” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his outer garment around himself, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea.
