Exegesis
The aorist epetimesan {ἐπετίμησαν | epetímēsan} ‘they rebuked’ presents their response as a decisive, completed action directed toward autois {αὐτοῖς | autoîs} ‘them,’ most naturally the ones bringing the children. In English, this structure is reflected by a main clause describing ongoing bringing, a purpose clause introduced by “so that,” and a contrasting clause beginning with “but the disciples,” which together highlight the tension between Jesus’ welcoming posture and the disciples’ restrictive reaction.
In context — Mark 10:13
And they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them, but the disciples rebuked them.
