Exegesis
The subject hoi georgoi {οἱ γεωργοὶ | hoi geōrgói} ‘the farmers’ is followed by the imperfect middle verb dielogizonto {διελογίζοντο | dielogízonto} ‘they were discussing,’ whose middle voice and imperfect tense together convey ongoing, mutual deliberation.
In context — Luke 20:14
But when the farmers saw him, they discussed with one another, saying, “This is the heir ; let us kill him, so that the inheritance may become ours .”
