Exegesis
The main clause centers on ebalen {ἔβαλεν | É-ba-len} ‘he put’, which governs the object phrase tous daktulous autou eis ta ota autou {τοὺς δακτύλους αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰ ὦτα αὐτοῦ | toús dak-TÚ-lous au-TOÛ eis tà Ô-ta au-TOÛ}, a tightly bound sequence specifying both the instrument (fingers) and the goal (ears) with repeated possessive pronouns marking the man’s body.
In context — Mark 7:33
And having taken him aside from the crowd privately, He put His fingers into his ears, and having spit, He touched his tongue.
