Ê-the-lon OUN la-BEIN au-TON eis to PLOI-on kai eu-THE-ôs e-GHE-ne-to to PLOI-on e-PI tês gês eis hên hy-PEE-gon
Exegesis
The infinitive labein {λαβεῖν | la-beîn} ‘to receive’ with the object auton {αὐτὸν | au-tón} forms a complementary construction expressing what they were willing to do, while the prepositional phrase eis to ploion {εἰς τὸ πλοῖον | eis tó ploî-on} specifies the goal of that reception.
The verb egeneto {ἐγένετο | e-gé-ne-to} functions intransitively, followed by a nominative subject to ploion {τὸ πλοῖον | tó ploî-on}, yielding the idiom ‘the boat came to be upon the land.’
Root and etymology
artosalpha–rho–tau–omicron–sigma
“bread, loaf”
In context — John 6:21
Therefore they were willing to receive Him into the boat , and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.
