This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
When he was come (ἐμβαίνοντος αὐτοῦ)
The participle is in the present tense. Not after he had embarked, but while he was in the act. Hence Rev., rightly, as he was entering. With this corresponds the graphic imperfect παρεκάλει: While he was stepping into the boat the restored man was beseeching him.
That (ἵνα)
In order that. Not the subject but the aim of the entreaty.
