Exegesis
The verse is a single narrative sentence constructed through a chain of coordinated clauses introduced by kai {Καὶ | kaí} ‘and’, giving a flowing sequence of actions.
The final coordinated clause kai apelthon pros auton {καὶ ἀπῆλθον πρὸς αὐτόν | kaí apêlthon prós autón} ‘and they went to Him’ shifts to a plural subject implied by the verb, presenting the decisive response of those called. The English renderings preserve this progression from ascent, to calling, to response, and reflect the emphasis on intentional choice and relational closeness encoded in the Greek syntax and middle voice.
In context — Mark 3:13
He went up into the mountain and called to Himself those whom He wanted, and they came to Him.
