Exegesis
The verse opens with the aorist participle kalesas {καλέσας | kalésas} ‘having called’, which functions temporally to set the background action prior to the main verb edoken {ἔδωκεν | édōken} ‘he gave’.
In context — Luke 19:13
And after calling ten of his own servants, he gave them ten minas and said to them, “Trade until I come back.”
