Exegesis
The second finite verb erripsan {ἔρριψαν | érripsan} shifts the focus from coming to a decisive act of placing (literally “throwing”) the sick para tous podas autou {παρὰ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ | pará toús pódas autoû}, a prepositional phrase that presents Jesus’ feet as the locus of appeal and authority.

In context — Matthew 15:30
