Exegesis
The object of this ordering is expressed through the infinitival clause ton Paulon achthenai {τὸν Παῦλον ἀχθῆναι | tòn Paûlon achthênai}, where the aorist passive infinitive achthenai ‘to be brought’ depicts Paul as the one being led in by others under compulsion. In English, the participial sequence is rendered with temporal clauses and coordinated finite verbs (“after spending… he went down… on the next day, having taken his seat… he ordered”) to preserve both the chronological flow and the formal judicial tone of the Greek narrative.
In context — Acts 25:6
And after spending not more than eight or ten days among them, he went down to Caesarea; on the next day, having taken his seat on the judgment seat , he ordered Paul to be brought.
