Exegesis
The verse begins with kai apēlthen palin {Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν πάλιν | Kaí apêlthen pálin}, a narrative chain that simply carries the story forward and marks the movement as a renewed departure.
The final clause kai emeinen ekei {καὶ ἔμεινεν ἐκεῖ | kaí émeinen ekeî} closes the scene with settled presence: after travel and relocation, the action ends in staying. The verse therefore joins movement and memory, showing Jesus returning to a place associated with John’s earlier baptismal activity and remaining there in a deliberate, calm pause.
