Exegesis
The main narrative movement is carried by three aorist indicatives: katentesamen {κατηντήσαμεν | ka-tēn-TĒ-sa-men} ‘we arrived,’ parebalomen {παρεβάλομεν | pa-re-BA-lo-men} ‘we put in,’ and elthomen {ἤλθομεν | EL-tho-men} ‘we came,’ which move the journey from off Chios to Samos and finally to Miletus.
Root and etymology
paraballopi–alpha–rho–alpha–beta–alpha–lambda–lambda–omega
“to place beside, bring alongside”
In context — Acts 20:15
And from there, having set sail, we arrived the next day opposite Chios ; and the following day we put in at Samos; and on the day after that we came to Miletus .
