Exegesis

A mild contrast is signaled by de {δὲ | dè} as the narrative shifts to kolpon tina katenooun echonta aigialon {κόλπον δέ τινα κατενόουν ἔχοντα αἰγιαλὸν | kól-pon dè tí-na ka-te-nóu-on é-khon-ta ai-gi-a-lòn}. Here, kolpon tina is the object of katenooun, with the participle echonta modifying kolpon and specifying that this bay possessed an aigialon, a shore suitable for landing.

In contextActs 27:39

When day came, they did not recognize the land, but they noticed a bay with a shore, and they planned, if they might be able, to run the ship aground there.
