Exegesis

The verb male {מָלֵ֤א | mā-lêʾ} ‘was filled’ (Qal perfect) takes ha-anashim {הָֽאֲנָשִׁים֙ | hā-ʾă-nā-šîm} ‘the men’ and veha-nashim {וְהַנָּשִׁ֔ים | wə-hǎ-nā-šīm} ‘and the women’ as direct objects, depicting a completed action.

In contextJudges 16:27

And the house was filled with men and women, and all the rulers of the Philistines were present, and on the roof there were about three thousand men and women watching Samson in amusement.
