Exegesis
The verse begins with the connective kai {καὶ | kaì} linking this scene to what precedes, followed by the historical present erchontai {ἔρχονται | ér-chon-tai} ‘they come’, which draws the reader into the moment.
In context — Mark 5:15
And they came to Jesus , and they saw the demon-possessed man sitting, clothed, and in his right mind—the one who had had the legion ; and they were afraid.
