Exegesis

The prepositional phrase apo ton horion autōn {ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτῶν | apò tôn horíōn autō̂n} ‘from their boundaries’ specifies the spatial domain from which they want Him removed, highlighting communal rejection rather than a localized request. The coordination of the two infinitives under ērxanto emphasizes the inseparable link between their urging and the desired outcome.
