Exegesis
The next clause, kai ēn to rhēma touto kekrymmenon apʼ autōn {καὶ ἦν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο κεκρυμμένον ἀπʼ αὐτῶν | kai ên tò rhêma toûto kekrumménon ap' autôn}, is a periphrastic construction (imperfect of “to be” plus perfect passive participle) that emphasizes the sustained result of a prior act of concealment: “this saying” stood in a state of being hidden from them.
