Exegesis
The verse begins with the temporal conjunction hos {Ὡς | Hōs} introducing a circumstantial clause, eplērōthē taûta {ἐπληρώθη ταῦτα | e-plē-rō-thē taû-ta} ‘these things were fulfilled,’ which frames Paul’s decision as subsequent to prior events.

In context — Acts 19:21
When these things had been fulfilled, Paul purposed in the Spirit to pass through Macedonia and Achaia and to go to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
