Exegesis
The verse begins with the circumstantial aorist participle anastas {ἀναστὰς | anastás} ‘having stood up’, followed by the postpositive de {δὲ | dè}, which here has a mild continuative sense, linking this scene to the preceding narrative.
In context — Acts 13:16
Then Paul stood up and, motioning with his hand, he said, “Men of Israel, and you who fear God , listen .”
