Explanation: This word is a form of the verb 'hyperpatheō', meaning 'to suffer excessively' or 'to be overcome with emotion'. It describes a state of intense feeling or distress. In the provided context, 'ΥΠΕΡΠΑΘΗ' appears to be an inflected form of this verb, likely indicating a past action of being deeply affected or distressed.
Inflection: Aorist, Active, Indicative, 3rd Person Plural (ΥΠΕΡΠΑΘΗΣΑΝ), or Aorist, Active, Participle, Nominative, Masculine, Singular (ΥΠΕΡΠΑΘΗΣΑΣ). The form 'ΥΠΕΡΠΑΘΗ' itself is not a standard inflected form of the verb 'ΥΠΕΡΠΑΘΕΩ' in Koine Greek. It is likely a misspelling or a very rare/non-standard inflection. If it were a verb, it might be a 2nd person singular aorist active imperative, but this is less likely given the context. It could also be a noun form, but the verb is more common.
