Exegesis
The verse consists of a single coordinated clause chain beginning with kai {καὶ | kaí} “and,” which connects this sentence to the preceding narrative of the miraculous feeding.
A second kai {καὶ | kaí} joins this to the following predicate, echortasthēsan {ἐχορτάσθησαν | e-khor-TÁS-thē-san}, an aorist passive indicative meaning “they were filled, they were satisfied,” which portrays the resulting state brought about by the prior act of feeding. The structure “they ate … and they were filled” creates a concise cause-result progression. The formal reconstruction preserves the two coordinated clauses and the passive sense “were satisfied,” while the dynamic reconstruction maintains the coordination with “and” and renders the passive as “were completely full” to foreground the experiential completeness of the outcome.
Root and etymology
dikēdelta–iota–kappa–eta
