Exegesis
The prepositional phrase pro prosōpou tēs eisodou autou {πρὸ προσώπου τῆς εἰσόδου αὐτοῦ | prò prosṓpou tês eisódou autoû} ‘before the face/ presence of His coming’ further specifies that John’s proclamation occurred in advance of His (Jesus’) arrival, with tēs eisodou autou functioning as a genitive construction defining the “presence” as the anticipated coming.
In context — Acts 13:24
Before His coming, John had proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
