Exegesis
The historical present erchetai ho Iēsous {ἔρχεται ὁ Ἰησοῦς | ér-khe-tai ho Iē-soûs} makes the arrival vivid and immediate, and the genitive absolute tōn thyrōn kekleismenōn {τῶν θυρῶν κεκλεισμένων | tōn thyrōn kekleisménōn} provides the circumstantial background of locked doors without carrying the main action forward.
In context — John 20:26
When eight days had passed, once again, His disciples were inside , and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, with the doors having been locked, and stood at the center and said, “Peace be to you.”
