Part of Speech: Verb, Preposition
Explanation: This is a compound phrase consisting of the verb 'διενυκτέρευσεν' and the preposition 'μετά'. The verb 'διενυκτέρευσεν' means 'he spent the night' or 'he passed the night'. It is derived from the root 'διανυκτερεύω', which means to spend the entire night, often in a specific activity like praying or waiting. The prefix 'δια-' intensifies the action, implying 'through' or 'completely'. The preposition 'μετά' means 'with' when followed by the genitive case, indicating companionship or association. Therefore, the phrase together means 'he spent the night with' someone or something.
Inflection: Verb: Third Person Singular, Aorist Active Indicative; Preposition: Governs the Genitive Case
