PAU-los de êk-KSII-ou ton a-po-STAN-ta ap au-TÔN a-PO pam-phy-LEE-as kai mê sy-nel-THON-ta au-TOIS eis to ER-gon mê sym-pa-ra-la-BEIN TOU-ton
Exegesis
The phrase eis tò ergon {εἰς τὸ ἔργον | eis tò ér-gon} ‘into the work’ frames the intended sphere of ministry. The double negation underscores Paul’s conviction that the deserter should not accompany them. For clarity, the participles are rendered as relative clauses, and the infinitive with me as a subordinate clause conveying evaluative nuance.
In context — Acts 15:38
But Paul considered it not right to take along the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work.
