Exegesis
The direct object tous artous {τοὺς ἄρτους | toûs ár-tous} ‘the loaves’ precedes the explicit subject ho Iesous {ὁ Ἰησοῦς | ho Iē-soûs} ‘Jesus’, a common Greek pattern where the finite verb comes first and the subject is clarified afterward.
In context — John 6:11
Then Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, He distributed them to those who were reclining; likewise also from the fish, as much as they wished .
