Exegesis
The second participle lambanon {λαμβάνων | lambánōn} is coordinated by kai {καὶ | kaí} and further modified by the adverbial phrase euthys meta charas {εὐθὺς μετὰ χαρᾶς | euthùs metà charâs} “immediately with joy,” giving a sequential portrait: hearing, then instant, joyful reception. The participles are gnomic, depicting a typical response rather than a single event. In translation, these participial phrases are rendered as relative-like descriptions (“the one who hears… and immediately receives…”) to preserve the ongoing, character-describing force while maintaining the emphasis on the rapid and joyful nature of the response.
In context — Matthew 13:20
But the one who was sown on the rocky places, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy .
