Exegesis
The aorist participle anablepsas {ἀναβλέψας | anablépsas} ‘having looked up’ precedes the main verb eipen {εἶπεν | eipen} ‘he said’ and is nominative masculine singular, agreeing with the subject ho Iesous {ὁ Ἰησοῦς | ho Iēsoûs}. This participle indicates prior action, showing that the looking up is the basis for the ensuing speech.
