Exegesis
A series of accusative substantival adjectives—kophous, typhlous, cholous, kyllous {κωφούς, τυφλούς, χωλούς, κυλλούς | kōphoús, typhloús, chōloús, kylloús}—forms an asyndetic list, only later expanded by kai heterous pollous {καὶ ἑτέρους πολλούς | kaí hetérous polloús} “and many others,” which signals the breadth of afflictions beyond those named.
In context — Matthew 15:30
And many crowds came to Him , having with themselves those who were mute, blind, lame, maimed, and many others; and they cast them beside His feet, and He healed them.
