Exegesis
A men...de {μὲν...δὲ | men...de} contrast then divides the narrative: in the first clause the subject hē prōra {ἡ πρῷρα | hē prôra} ‘the bow’ is modified by the participle ereisasa {ἐρείσασα | ereísasa} and the finite verb emeinen {ἔμεινεν | émeinen} with the adjective asáleutos {ἀσάλευτος | asáleutos}, illustrating stability and immovability.
In context — Acts 27:41
But after falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; the bow stuck fast and remained immovable, but the stern was being broken up by the force .
