as entering

Morphological NotesPreposition כְ + Qal infinitive construct of בוא.
Rendering RationaleThe Qal infinitive construct of בוא expresses the simple act of coming or entering; with the prefixed כְ it functions adverbially, meaning "as" or "when" entering. This preserves both the root sense of movement toward a point and the infinitive verbal-noun form.
