Exegesis
A second de {δὲ | dé} signals the shift to the participial phrase eiselthon {εἰσελθὼν | eiselthṓn} ‘having entered,’ which provides temporal background for the main verb dielexato {διελέξατο | dieléxato} ‘he reasoned.’
In context — Acts 18:19
When they reached Ephesus , he left them there, but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews .
