Word in context

Exegesis

In the coordinated clause pantes te paregenonto hoi presbyteroi {πάντες τε παρεγένοντο οἱ πρεσβύτεροι | pán-tes te pa-re-gé-non-to hoi pres-bú-te-roi} ‘all and arrived the elders’, the particle te links the elders’ assembly directly to Paul’s arrival, and the aorist middle paregenonto ‘arrived’ indicates a completed, collective presence. This structure emphasizes a formal gathering, preserved in English through the initial temporal marker and the clear sequence of actions.
