Exegesis

Hṓste {ὥστε | hṓste} introduces the result infinitive apokhōristhēnai {ἀποχωρισθῆναι | apokhōristhēnai} ‘to be separated’, whose subject autoús {αὐτοὺς | autoús} ‘them’ and the phrase ap’ allḗlōn {ἀπʼ ἀλλήλων | ap’ allḗlōn} ‘from one another’ convey mutual division.

In contextActs 15:39

Then a sharp disagreement occurred, so that they separated from one another; and Barnabas took Mark and sailed away to Cyprus.
