Exegesis
The object of gathering is the plēthos {τὸ πλῆθος | to plê-thos} “multitude,” while the epistolēn {τὴν ἐπιστολήν | tēn ep-is-to-lḗn} “letter” functions as the direct object of epedōkan. The sequence of aorist participles and indicatives compacts the actions into a rapid narrative chain, which in English is optimally rendered with temporal clauses to preserve logical order.
In context — Acts 15:30
