Exegesis

The verse begins with the genitive absolute dialegomenou de autou {διαλεγομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ | di-a-le-go-mé-nou dè au-toû}, establishing a circumstantial temporal frame “while he was reasoning.”

In contextActs 24:25

But as he was reasoning about righteousness and self-control and the judgment that is coming, Felix, having become afraid, answered, “For the present time , go; and when I find an opportunity, I will send for you.”
