Exegesis

The verse begins with the narrative connector kai {καὶ | kaí} “and,” linking this scene to the preceding events.

The following prepositional phrase meta machairon kai xylon {μετὰ μαχαιρῶν καὶ ξύλων | metá machairôn kaí xýlōn} “with swords and clubs” details the weapons carried, creating an image of excessive force.

In contextMark 14:48

And Jesus answered and said to them, “Have you come out as against a robber , with swords and clubs to seize Me?”
