Exegesis
The dative tō Iēsou {τῷ Ἰησοῦ | tō Iēsoû} marks the recipient of the report. The sequence of participles plus main verbs creates a tight chronological flow: approach, care for the body, burial, and subsequent report to Jesus. In English, the participles are rendered as finite verbs (“came,” “went”) to preserve the temporal nuance while maintaining natural narrative style, and the implicit object of “reported” is expressed as “it” in the formal reconstruction for clarity.
Root and etymology
piptōpiptō | pi–iota–pi–tau–omega
