Exegesis
The genitive absolute construction synēgmenōn hēmōn {συνηγμένων ἡμῶν | synēgménōn hēmōn} “when we had been gathered” provides background circumstance, conceptually rendered in English as a temporal clause “when we had gathered together.”
In context — Acts 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.
