Exegesis

The causal particle hoti {ὅτι | hóti} ‘because’ introduces the reason clause: etherapeusen ho Iēsous {ἐθεράπευσεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς | etherápeusen ho Iēsous} ‘Jesus healed’ on the Sabbath, where tō sabbatō {τῷ σαββάτῳ | tôi sabbátō} functions as a dative of time.

The main verb elegen {ἔλεγεν | élegen} ‘he was saying’ (imperfect) presents ongoing speech to tō ochlō {τῷ ὄχλῳ | tôi óchlō} ‘the crowd’.
