Exegesis

The verse begins with the conjunction kai {καὶ | kai} linking this sentence to the preceding narrative, followed by the aorist participle proelthon {προελθὼν | proelthōn} ‘having gone forward,’ which sets up a circumstantial action prior to the main imperfect verbs.

Another kai {καὶ | kai} coordinates the next imperfect verb proseucheto {προσηύχετο | proseúcheto} ‘he was praying,’ so the sequence is: movement, posture, and sustained prayer.

In contextMark 14:35

And having gone forward a little, He was falling upon the ground and was praying that, if it is possible, the hour might pass from Him.
