Exegesis
In the quotation, the paired imperatives Speuson {Σπεῦσον | Speû-son} ‘hurry’ and exelthe {ἔξελθε | éx-el-the} ‘go out’ carry urgent force, intensified by the adverbial phrase en tachei {ἐν τάχει | en tá-khei} ‘in haste.’
In context — Acts 22:18
And I saw Him say to me, “Act quickly and leave Jerusalem at once, because they will not receive your testimony about Me.”
