Exegesis
The verse begins with the participial clause kai genomenoi {καὶ γενόμενοι | kaí genómenoi} “and having come,” which functions temporally, indicating action prior to the main verb and best rendered in English as “when they had arrived” or “when they reached.”
In context — Acts 13:5
And when they had arrived in Salamis, they were proclaiming the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews, and they also had John as an assistant.
