Exegesis
εἰς ὃν εἰσῆλθεν {εἰς ὃν εἰσῆλθεν | eis hon eis-ēl-then} completes the movement toward that setting, while αὐτός {αὐτός | au-tós} placed before καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ {καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ | kai hoi ma-thē-taí au-toû} gives added stress to Jesus Himself and then brings the disciples into the action. The English renderings therefore break the Greek sequence into short clauses so the motion from speech, to departure, to crossing, to entry remains clear and readable.
In context — John 18:1
Once Jesus had spoken these things, He left with His disciples and passed beyond the Kidron brook. There was a garden there, and He Himself entered it together with His disciples.
