Exegesis
The verse places two aorist participles, elthon {ἐλθών | elthṓn} “having come” and proselthon {προσελθών | proselthṓn} “having approached,” before the main verb legei {λέγει | légei} “he says,” creating a temporal sequence in which preparatory actions lead up to the central speech act.
In context — Mark 14:45
And when he had come, immediately having approached Him , he said, “Rabbi ,” and he kissed Him.
