Exegesis
The present tense erchetai {ἔρχεται | ér-khe-tai} ‘comes’ conveys immediacy, while kai {καὶ | kaì} ‘and’ links it to the future apokatastēsei {ἀποκαταστήσει | a-po-ka-ta-stḗ-sei} ‘will restore’, coupling arrival with restoration.
In context — Matthew 17:11
Jesus answered, “Elijah is indeed coming, and he will restore all things.”
