Exegesis
The final adverb palin {πάλιν | pálin} ‘again’ adds the nuance of a future occasion for further discussion. The English renderings mirror this sequence: initial hearing, divided responses, and then the reported promise of further hearing, while preserving the contrastive men…de structure with “some… but others…”.
In context — Acts 17:32
But when they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked , but others said, “We will hear you again concerning this.”
