Exegesis
The predicate monos ēn ekei {μόνος ἦν ἐκεῖ | mó-nos ên e-keî} ‘He was there alone’ places strong emphasis on His solitude by positioning monos before the verb. The reconstructions preserve these temporal and purposive relationships while highlighting the narrative climax of Jesus’ solitary prayer.
In context — Matthew 14:23
And after He had sent the crowds away, He ascended the mountain by Himself to pray ; and when evening came, He remained there alone.
