Exegesis

The negative imperfect eiōn {εἴων | eí-on} expresses ongoing refusal by the disciples (hoi mathetai {οἱ μαθηταί | hoi ma-thē-taí}), with auton {αὐτὸν | au-tón} as the object. In translation, the genitive absolute becomes a temporal clause and the imperfect is rendered “would not permit/let” to reflect continuous denial.

In contextActs 19:30

But when Paul wished to enter among the crowd, the disciples would not permit him.
