Exegesis
A relative clause, hon heuron anthropos {ὃν εὑρὼν ἄνθρωπος | hon heu-rṑn án-thrō-pos}, uses an aorist participle “having found” before the main verb ekrypsen {ἔκρυψεν | é-kry-psen} to portray the man’s discovery as prior to his decisive action of hiding.
In context — Matthew 13:44
The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field, which a man, having found it, hid; and from his joy he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
