Exegesis
The narrative then employs the aorist verb exēlthomen {ἐξήλθομεν | ex-ḗl-tho-men} with the adverb exō {ἔξω | éx-ō} and the genitive tēs pylēs {τῆς πύλης | tēs pú-lēs} to describe a completed movement “out beyond the gate.”
In context — Acts 16:13
And on the Sabbath day we went outside the gate to a riverside, where we assumed there was a place of prayer ; we sat down and spoke with the women who had gathered there.
