Exegesis
The verse begins with the genitive absolute construction eti autou lalountos {Ἔτι αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος | É-ti au-toû la-loûn-tos} “while He was still speaking,” which sets a temporal backdrop independent of the main finite verbs.
In context — Luke 22:47
While He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came, and the one called Judas, one of the twelve, was going before them, and he approached Jesus to kiss Him.
