Exegesis
`exelthon {ἐξῆλθον | exêl-thon} ‘I came out’` opens the sentence with origin language, and `ek tou patros {ἐκ τοῦ πατρὸς | ek tou pa-tròs} ‘from the Father’` identifies the source of that movement.
In context — John 16:28
I came out from the Father and I have come into the world ; once more, I am leaving the world and I am going to the Father.
