Exegesis
Duration of stay is expressed by the accusative hēmeran mian {ἡμέραν μίαν | hē-mé-ran mí-an} “one day,” and the phrase par’ autois {παρʼ αὐτοῖς | par' au-toîs} “with them” emphasizes fellowship with the local community. English renders the participial sequence with finite clauses and temporal markers to preserve clarity and narrative flow.
In context — Acts 21:7
When we had completed the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais; we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for one day.
