The OEB currently reads:

"In the morning, long before daylight, Jesus rose and went out, and, going to a lonely spot, there began to pray."

"there began to pray" is awkward. Recommend changing to "began to pray there":

"In the morning, long before daylight, Jesus rose and went out, and, going to a lonely spot, began to pray there."
