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”).
The conjunction de {δὲ | de} smoothly connects to the narrative.
