Exegesis
The main verb paregénonto {παρεγένοντο | pa-re-gé-non-to} 'they arrived' takes the prepositional phrase eis {εἰς | eis} 'into' + Antiocheian {Ἀντιόχειαν | An-ti-ó-khei-an} 'Antioch' + tḕn {τὴν | tḕn} 'the' + Pisidian {Πισιδίαν | Pi-si-dí-an} 'Pisidia' as its complement, specifying the destination.
A parallel aorist participle eiselthóntes {εἰσελθόντες | ei-sel-thón-tes} 'having entered' introduces the action of entering the synagogue, with its object marked by eis {εἰς | eis} 'into' + synagōgēn {συναγωγὴν | sy-na-gō-gḕn} 'synagogue'.
