Exegesis

The imperfect ēmēn {ἤμην | ē-mēn} “I was” combines with the prepositional phrase pros hymas {πρὸς ὑμᾶς | pros hy-mâs} “with you” and the locative phrase en tō hierō {ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ | en tôi hi-e-rō} “in the temple” to portray sustained, public association with the hearers in a sacred space.

In contextMark 14:49

Day by day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this took place so that the Scriptures might be fulfilled.
