Exegesis
The imperfect edidou {ἐδίδου | e-dí-dou} “was giving” portrays ongoing or repeated bestowal, while autois {αὐτοῖς | au-toîs} “to them” marks the Twelve as the continuous recipients.
In context — Mark 6:7
And He summoned the twelve to Himself and began sending them out two by two, granting them authority over the unclean spirits.
