Exegesis
The private setting is signaled by the prepositional phrase par heautō {παρʼ ἑαυτῷ | par heautō} 'beside himself', while the imperative tithētō {τιθέτω | tithétō} 'let him put' issues a continuing command, further defined by the participle thēsaurizōn {θησαυρίζων | thēsaurízōn} 'storing up', which conveys ongoing, cumulative action.
In context — 1 Corinthians 16:2
On the first day of each week, each of you should set aside something for yourself in private, storing up whatever he may prosper, so that when I come there will be no collections .
