Exegesis
The narrative sequence opens with kai {καὶ | kaí} “and,” linking this report to the prior account, followed by the aorist indicative elthen {ἦλθεν | ḗlthen} “he came,” with the substantive adjective ho deuteros {ὁ δεύτερος | ho deúteros} “the second” as subject.
In context — Luke 19:18
And the second came, saying, “Lord , Your mina has produced five minas.”
