Exegesis
The verse employs two aorist participles, kraxas {κράξας | kráx-as} ‘having cried out’ and sparaxas {σπαράξας | sparáx-as} ‘having convulsed’, which set the temporal stage for the main verb exelthen {ἐξῆλθεν | exêl-then} ‘it came out’, marking the climactic departure of the unclean spirit.
