Exegesis
The main verb eisēlthon {εἰσῆλθον | eisêlthon} ‘they entered’ takes the accusative object pros tēn Lydian {πρὸς τὴν Λυδίαν | pròs tēn Lydían}, indicating movement to Lydia’s house by metonymy.
In context — Acts 16:40
After they went out from the prison , they entered Lydia’s house; and when they saw the brothers, they encouraged them and departed.
