Exegesis
The circumstantial participle idóntes autón {ἰδόντες αὐτόν | idóntes autón} ‘having seen Him’ establishes the temporal background, expanded by the prepositional phrase epí tês thalássēs peripatoûnta {ἐπί τῆς θαλάσσης περιπατοῦντα | epí tês thalássēs peripatoûnta} ‘walking on the sea’, which describes the manner of Jesus’ appearance.
In context — Matthew 14:26
But the disciples, when they saw Him walking on the sea, were shaken, saying, “It is a ghost !” and in fear they cried out.
