Exegesis
A second clause introduced by kai {καὶ | kaí} shifts to the human response: the aorist eblasphēmesan {ἐβλασφήμησαν | eb-las-phē-mē-san} “they blasphemed” presents their reaction as a completed, culpable act.
Root and etymology

In context — Revelation 16:21
And great hail, like a talent in weight, falls from heaven upon the people, and the people blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, for the plague was exceedingly great.
