Exegesis
The verse opens with the fronted accusative phrase hikanon khronon {ἱκανὸν χρόνον | hi-ka-nón khró-non} ‘a considerable time’ marked by the particles men oun {μὲν οὖν | men oun} that signal contrast and consequence from the prior events.
In context — Acts 14:3
So they remained there for quite some time, speaking boldly for the Lord , and He bore witness to the word of His grace by permitting signs and wonders to be done through their hands.
