Exegesis
The verse begins with the genitive absolute ekporeuomenou autou {ἐκπορευομένου αὐτοῦ | ek-po-reu-o-mé-nou autoû}, a circumstantial construction marking time, best rendered “as He was going out.”
In context — Mark 10:17
And as He was going out into the road, one ran up and, having knelt to Him, was asking Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life ?”
