Exegesis
The following prepositional phrase eis Attaleian {εἰς Ἀττάλειαν | eis At-tá-lei-an} “into Attalia” marks the destination and implies a purposeful movement toward a significant port city. In English, the participial construction is rendered as a temporal clause (“having spoken” / “after they preached”) to clarify the sequence, while preserving the narrative linkage and geographic orientation embedded in the Greek syntax.
In context — Acts 14:25
And having spoken the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia .
