Exegesis
The prepositional phrase hypo tēs mētros autēs {ὑπὸ τῆς μητρὸς αὐτῆς | hy-pó tēs mē-trós au-tês} uses hypo with the genitive to mark the mother as the agent behind the girl’s action, foregrounding manipulation.
In context — Matthew 14:8
But she, having been prompted by her mother , says, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”
