Exegesis
The adverb euthéōs {εὐθέως | euthéōs} placed before the verb highlights immediate action, leading to the purpose infinitive exeltheîn {ἐξελθεῖν | exeltheîn} governed by ezētēsamen {ἐζητήσαμεν | ezētēsamen}, expressing intent “to go out into Macedonia.”
In context — Acts 16:10
When he saw the vision, we immediately sought to set out for Macedonia, reasoning that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
