Exegesis
Within this clause, the aorist middle participle paragenomenoi {παραγενόμενοι | pa-ra-ge-nó-me-noi} ‘having arrived’ is circumstantial and temporally prior to the main imperfect verb apēiesan {ἀπῄεσαν | ap-ḗ-e-san} ‘they went’, yielding the sense “when they had arrived, they went.”
In context — Acts 17:10
But the brothers immediately sent both Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews .
