Exegesis

Ho Iesous {ὁ Ἰησοῦς | ho Iē-soûs} stands as the subject, and euthys {εὐθὺς | eú-thus} ‘at once’ intensifies the pace as anebe {ἀνέβη | a-né-bē} ‘went up’ marks His emergence from apo tou hydatos {ἀπὸ τοῦ ὕδατος | apò toû hý-da-tos} ‘from the water.’

In contextMatthew 3:16

After Jesus was baptized, He rose at once from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming upon Him.
