Exegesis
The preposition ana {ἀνά | aná} ‘each’ with denarion {δηνάριον | dēnárion} ‘denarius’ forms a distributive expression, signifying that every worker received the same unit of pay. In English, the participial clause becomes a temporal clause, and the distributive force is conveyed by “each” or “each one.”
