Exegesis

The main clause centers on ho Paulos dielegeto autois {ὁ Παῦλος διελέγετο αὐτοῖς | ho Paûlos dielégeto autoîs} “Paul was conversing with them,” where the imperfect middle emphasizes ongoing, dialogical teaching rather than a brief address.

In contextActs 20:7

And on the first day of the week, when we had gathered together to break bread , Paul was conversing with them, since he was about to depart on the next day, and he extended the message until midnight.
