Exegesis
In their report, érēmos estin ho tópos {Ἔρημός ἐστιν ὁ τόπος | É-rē-mos es-tin ho tó-pos} “this place is deserted” uses predicate adjective word order to stress remoteness, followed by kai hē hōra ēdē parēlthen {καὶ ἡ ὥρα ἤδη παρῆλθεν | kaí hē hō-ra ē-dē parêl-then} “and the hour is already late” which heightens urgency.
In context — Matthew 14:15
Now as evening approached, the disciples came to Him and said, “This place is deserted , and the hour is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.”
