Exegesis
The genitive absolute construction diagenomenou tou sabbatou {διαγενομένου τοῦ σαββάτου | diagenoménou tou sabbátou} provides a temporal setting, “after the Sabbath had passed,” independent of the main clause, signaling the transition from Sabbath rest to permitted activity.
In context — Mark 16:1
And after the Sabbath had passed, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that, after they had come, they might anoint Him .
