Exegesis
The next clause, egeneto hē basileia autou eskotōmenē {ἐγένετο ἡ βασιλεία αὐτοῦ ἐσκοτωμένη | egéneto hē basileía autoû eskotōménē}, uses the aorist middle egeneto plus a perfect passive participle, creating a resultative construction: the kingdom “came to be” in a state of completed darkness. The participle eskotōmenē functions predicatively with hē basileia, describing the condition of the beast’s realm as a consequence of the outpoured bowl.
