Exegesis
The coordinating kai {καὶ | kaí} before karpon and before ta zizania links parallel elements (normal crop and invasive weeds), reinforcing the contrast that undergirds the parable’s later interpretation. In translation, the temporal clause is rendered first (“when the plant sprouted and produced fruit”), followed by a main clause (“then the weeds also appeared”), preserving the Greek temporal progression and highlighting the moment of revelation.
Root and etymology
dikēdelta iota kappa eta
“right, justice”
In context — Matthew 13:26
