Exegesis
The circumstantial participle apokritheis {ἀποκριθεὶς | a-po-kri-theìs} ‘having answered’ precedes the main verb eipen {εἶπεν | eî-pen} ‘he said’, providing background for the subsequent declaration.
In context — Luke 19:40
And answering, He said, “I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out.”
