Just as he was and at once. {Bound hand and foot} (\dedemenos tous podas kai tas cheiras\). Perfect passive participle of \de\ with the accusative loosely retained according to the common Greek idiom (Robertson, _Grammar_, p. 486), but literally "as to the feet and hands" (opposite order from the English).

Past perfect passive of \peride\, old verb to bind around, only here in N.T. {With a napkin} (\soudarii\). Instrumental case of \soudarion\ (Latin word _sudarium_ from _sudor_, sweat).
