Exegesis
The participle echontes {ἔχοντες | échontes} introduces a circumstantial participial clause, “having with themselves,” which is further specified by the prepositional phrase meth’ heautōn {μεθʼ ἑαυτῶν | meth’ heautōn}, emphasizing that these sufferers belonged to the crowds themselves.
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.
