Exegesis
The infinitive idein {ἰδεῖν | ideîn} ‘to consider’ expresses the purpose of the gathering, and the prepositional phrase peri tou logou toutou {περὶ τοῦ λόγου τούτου | perì tou lógou toútou} ‘about this matter’ identifies the specific issue under examination. The construction foregrounds collective deliberation by the church leadership.
In context — Acts 15:6
