Exegesis
The verb apelthen {ἀπῆλθεν | apêl-then} introduces the main action “went away,” with the subject understood from ho protos {ὁ πρῶτος | ho prô-tos}, “the first,” referring to the first angel in Revelation 16:1.
In context — Revelation 16:2
And the first went and poured out his bowl upon the earth, and a harmful and painful sore came upon the people who had the mark of the beast and those who worshipped its image.
