Exegesis
The participial phrase aspasamenoi ton Pheston {ἀσπασάμενοι τὸν Φῆστον | aspasámenoi tòn Phēston} is a nominative aorist middle participle that is semantically linked to the subject; it can express purpose (“in order to greet Festus”) or accompanying circumstance (“greeting Festus as they came”). In English, this participial structure is most naturally rendered as an infinitive of purpose (“to greet Festus”) or as part of a verbal phrase (“to pay a visit to Festus”), preserving the temporal sequence implied by the aorist participle following the arrival.
