Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ek rizon {ἐκ ῥιζῶν | ek rhizôn} uses ek to indicate origin or extent, “from the roots,” emphasizing that the withering is total and reaches to the very source of life. In translation, the participial clause is rendered as an English temporal clause (“as they were passing by”) to preserve the narrative flow, while the perfect participle is expressed with a stative verbal phrase (“dried up” / “had withered”) to reflect the ongoing result of the earlier judgment.
Root and etymology
krazokappa–rho–alpha–zeta–omega
