Exegesis
The first clause begins with epetimēsen {ἐπετίμησεν | epetímēsen} ‘rebuked,’ placing the aorist verb at the forefront for emphasis on Jesus’ authoritative act, followed by the dative pronoun autō {αὐτῷ | autô} ‘to him’ and the subject Iesous {Ἰησοῦς | Iēsoûs} ‘Jesus,’ a marked order that highlights His power over the possessing spirit.
