Exegesis
A series of aorist verbs follows in parataxis: exedysan {ἐξέδυσαν | e-xé-dy-san} “they stripped” with its object auton {αὐτόν | au-tón} and the accusative phrase tēn porphuran {τὴν πορφύραν | tḕn por-phú-ran} “the purple robe,” then enedysan {ἐνέδυσαν | e-né-dy-san} “they clothed” with auton and the double accusative object ta himatia ta idia {τὰ ἱμάτια τὰ ἴδια | tá hi-má-ti-a tá í-di-a} “His own garments,” where the repeated article plus adjective emphasizes that these clothes truly belonged to Him.
