Exegesis
The verse opens with the genitive absolute epimenonton de hēmeras pleíous {ἐπιμενόντων δὲ ἡμέρας πλείους | epimenóntōn de hēméras pleíous}, where the present active participle plus its accusative object indicates temporal setting (“while we were staying for many days”).
In context — Acts 21:10
While we were staying there for many days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
