Exegesis

The primary narrative verb orchēsato {ὠρχήσατο | ōr-KHÉ-sa-to} introduces the key event, while the subject phrase hē thygatēr tēs Hērōidiados {ἡ θυγάτηρ τῆς Ἡρῳδιάδος | hē thu-GÁ-tēr tēs Hē-rōi-DÍ-a-dos} follows the verb, a common word order in Greek narrative that foregrounds the action before identifying the actor.

In contextMatthew 14:6
