Exegesis

The coordinating particle de {δὲ | dé} links this movement to prior events.

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.’
