Exegesis
The fronted participles katalipon {καταλιπὼν | katalipṓn} ‘having left’ and elthon {ἐλθὼν | elthṓn} ‘having come’ compress departure and arrival before the main assertion katokesen {κατῴκησεν | katōíkēsen} ‘settled’. That main verb supplies the narrative outcome: a new residence in Capernaum.
