Exegesis
The repeated kai {καὶ | kaí} structures the sentence paratactically, first joining the two conditions, then introducing a second main verbal action, parakalousin {παρακαλοῦσιν | parakaloûsin} “they urge,” which portrays earnest petition.
In context — Mark 7:32
And they bring to Him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment, and they urge Him so that He may lay His hand upon him.
