Exegesis
The participles labōn {λαβὼν | labṓn} ‘having taken’ and eulogēsas {εὐλογήσας | eulogḗ-sas} ‘having blessed’ form a participial chain that is antecedent to the main finite verb eklasen {ἔκλασεν | é-kla-sen} ‘he broke’, highlighting deliberate, ordered actions.
In context — Mark 14:22
And while they were eating, He took bread and, having blessed, He broke it, and gave it to them and said, “Take; this is My body .”
