Exegesis
Its object is the accusative phrase ton Iesoun erchomenon pros auton {τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἐρχόμενον πρὸς αὐτόν | tón Iē-soûn er-chó-me-non prós au-tón}, where the participle erchomenon modifies Iesoun and conveys progressive action (“Jesus as He is coming toward him”), forming a supplementary participial clause that adds motion and direction.
In context — John 1:29
On the next day, he saw Jesus coming toward him, and he said, “Behold, the Lamb of God , the one who takes away the sin of the world.”
