Exegesis
The clause eporeueto gar ten hodon autou chairon {ἐπορεύετο γὰρ τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ χαίρων | e-po-reú-e-to gár tēn ho-dón au-toû khaí-rōn} uses the imperfect eporeueto {ἐπορεύετο | e-po-reú-e-to} to portray ongoing action—he kept going on his way—while gar {γὰρ | gár} introduces this as an explanation or result of the previous event.
In context — Acts 8:39
When they had come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no longer, for he went on his way rejoicing.
