Exegesis

The direct object phrase tēn ekklēsian {τὴν ἐκκλησίαν | tḕn ek-klē-sí-an} marks the assembled group as the entity being dismissed; the accusative case signals it as the object of the finite verb. In this context, ekklēsia carries a civic-assembly nuance rather than a specifically ecclesial one, so the translation uses “assembly” and “gathering” while preserving the idea of an orderly, possibly official, dismissal conveyed by the verb apelysen.

In contextActs 19:41

And after he had said these things , he dismissed the assembly.
