Exegesis
The temporal prepositional phrase meta to paradothēnai ton Iōannēn {μετὰ τὸ παραδοθῆναι τὸν Ἰωάννην | metà tò paradothḗnai tòn Iōánnēn} functions adverbially, with the preposition meta governing the articular infinitive to paradothēnai {τὸ παραδοθῆναι | tò paradothḗnai} to express a time “after” the completed event of John’s being handed over. The aorist passive infinitive presents John’s arrest as a singular, whole action that provides the temporal backdrop for what follows.
