Exegesis
The verse opens with the genitive absolute construction poreuomenou de autou {πορευομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ | po-reu-o-mé-nou dè au-toû} ‘as He was going’, which provides a temporal and background frame for the main action.
The conjunction de {δὲ | dè} is postpositive and functions to advance the narrative while keeping the focus on the ongoing movement.
