Exegesis
The pronoun auton {αὐτὸν | au-tòn} refers back to Jesus, and the adverb polla {πολλὰ | pol-là} “greatly” intensifies the plea.
In context — Mark 5:23
And he earnestly pleaded with Him , saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death; please come and lay Your hands on her so that she may be healed and live.”
