Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(2) With defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands.--The first word means literally common. This came to be associated, as in Acts 10:14, with what was "unclean," and so, for Jews at all events, the word acquired a new meaning. St. Mark's Gentile readers, however, were not likely to understand what was meant by "common hands," and therefore he adds his explanation of "unwashed."Parallel Commentaries ...Greekandκαὶ (kai)ConjunctionStrong's 2532: And, even, also, namely. they sawἰδόντες (idontes)Verb - Aorist Participle Active - Nominative Masculine PluralStrong's 3708: Properly, to stare at, i.e. to discern clearly; by extension, to attend to; by Hebraism, to experience; passively, to appear.someτινὰς (tinas)Interrogative / Indefinite Pronoun - Accusative Masculine PluralStrong's 5100: Any one, some one, a certain one or thing.
