Exegesis
The aorist active ephagon {ἔφαγον | éphagōn} “they ate” is immediately followed by the aorist passive echortasthēsan {ἐχορτάσθησαν | ekhortásthēsan} “they were satisfied,” moving from action to result.
In context — Matthew 14:20
And all of them ate and were satisfied, and they collected what was left over of the fragments , twelve baskets full.
