Exegesis
The hina clause includes the genitive pronoun auton {αὐτῶν | autôn} before the subjunctive verb hapsetai {ἅψηται | hápsētai}; in Greek, the verb ‘touch’ regularly takes a genitive object, so the sequence ‘in order that them He might touch’ is preserved in translation as “so that He might touch them,” while maintaining the sense of intentional action.
In context — Mark 10:13
And they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them, but the disciples rebuked them.
