Exegesis
The aorist participle epistrépsantes {Ἐπιστρέψαντες | Epistrépsantes} “having returned” functions adverbially with the hortatory subjunctive episkepsṓmetha {ἐπισκεψώμεθα | episkepsṓmetha} “let us visit,” forming a deliberative suggestion that blends movement with pastoral care.
In context — Acts 15:36
After some days, Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return and visit the brothers in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord , and see how they are doing .”
