Exegesis
The conjunction kai {καὶ | kaì} ‘and’ connects a parallel clause with epoiesan autois hosautōs {ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς ὡσαύτως | epó-ē-san au-toîs hō-sáu-tōs} ‘they did to them likewise’, where the adverb hosautōs {ὡσαύτως | hō-sáu-tōs} ‘likewise’ reinforces the repeated pattern. English preserves subject-verb-object order and uses comparative phrasing to reflect the Greek structure.
