Exegesis
The aorist middle participle proskalesamenos {προσκαλεσάμενος | pros-ka-le-SÁ-me-nos} “having called to Himself” precedes the main verb eipen {εἶπεν | eî-pen} “he said,” indicating a prior, preparatory action (summoning the disciples) that leads into the reported speech.
In context — Matthew 15:32
But Jesus , having called His disciples, said, “I have compassion upon the crowd , because they have already remained with Me three days and do not have anything that they might eat. And I do not want to send them away fasting, lest they might faint on the way.”
