Exegesis

The aorist indicative proselthon {προσῆλθον | prosḗlthon} ‘they approached’ is the main verb, with its subject expressed by the substantival participle hoi ta didrachma lambanontes {οἱ τὰ δίδραχμα λαμβάνοντες | hoi ta dídrachma lambánontes} ‘the collectors of the two-drachma tax’, identifying the agents.

In contextMatthew 17:24

When they entered Capernaum , the men who collected the two-drachma tax came to Peter and said, “Your teacher pays the two-drachma tax, does He not?”
