KAI hoi pro-A-gon-tes e-pe-TI-mon au-TOI HI-na si-GÊ-sêi au-TOS de pol-LOI MAL-lon E-kra-dzen hy-E dau-ID e-LE-ê-SOΝ me
Exegesis
The dative of degree pollō {πολλῷ | pol-LŌ} combined with the comparative adverb mallon {μᾶλλον | MÂL-lon} forms pollō mallon “much more,” intensifying the subsequent imperfect ekrazen {ἔκραζεν | É-kra-zen} “he was crying out.”
In context — Luke 18:39
And those going ahead rebuked him so that he might be silent, but he cried out much more, “Son of David , have mercy on me!”
