Exegesis
The prepositional phrase apo tou kentyriōnos {ἀπὸ τοῦ κεντυρίωνος | apó tou kentyriōnos} specifies the source of the information, with apo marking origin and the genitive noun indicating that the confirmation comes from the centurion as an authorized witness. The main verb edōrēsato has a middle form with the sense “granted as a favor” or “gave as a concession,” suggesting a deliberate, perhaps benevolent, administrative decision rather than a routine release.
Root and etymology
krinokappa–rho–iota–nu–omega
“to judge, decide, separate”
In context — Mark 15:45
And when he had learned from the centurion , he granted the body to Joseph.
