Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
They inclosed (sunekleisan). Effective aorist active indicative with perfective compound sun.
They shut together. Were breaking (dierhsseto). Imperfect passive singular (diktua being neuter plural). This is the late form of the old verb diarhgnumi. The nets were actually tearing in two (dia-) and so they would lose all the fish.
