Exegesis
The dative pronoun autō {αὐτῷ | au-tō} indicates the indirect object, the One to whom the infants are being brought, while kai {καὶ | kaí} coordinates the direct object phrase ta brephē {τὰ βρέφη | tà bre-phē} ‘the infants’, implying that in addition to others, even infants are included.
In context — Luke 18:15
But they were also bringing the infants to Him so that He might touch them. When the disciples saw this, they were rebuking them.
