Exegesis
The verb apethanen {ἀπέθανεν | a-pé-tha-nen} is an aorist indicative, presenting the action as a simple, whole event in the past without internal elaboration. The Greek word order—adverb, conjunction, subject, verb—emphasizes both timing and continuity with what has already been narrated, which is best reflected in English by fronting the temporal adverb (“Afterward” / “Later”) and rendering kai with an additive sense (“also,” “too”) to maintain the narrative linkage.
