Exegesis

The particle te {τε | te} lightly links this statement with the preceding narrative, while the coordinated subjects ho Paulos kai ho Barnabas {ὁ Παῦλος καὶ ὁ Βαρναβᾶς | ho Paûlos kaì ho Barnabâs} present the missionary pair in a marked, nominative position before the verb.

In contextActs 13:46

And after Paul and Barnabas had spoken boldly, they said, “It was necessary for the word of God to be spoken to you first. But since you are rejecting it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, behold, we are turning to the Gentiles.”
