Hi Karl. You had written: "... that which is stated later is connected to what was stated earlier." This simply sounds to me like saying the later clause is somehow connected to the earlier clause. That's true. I agree. But I would like to find out what the nature of that connection is.
As others have pointed out, though, even the assumption of some kind of conjunctive relationship needs to be analysed further. In any case, sequentiality certainly does not have great explanatory power here. Sequentiality is, I would argue, a product of the narrative genre, rather than an inbuilt grammatical component of the wayyiqtol verb.
