Exegesis
The dative pronoun autō {αὐτῷ | au-tō̂} with hēmeran {ἡμέραν | hē-MÉ-ran} expresses “setting a day for him,” followed by the imperfect main verb ēkon {ἦκον | Ē-kon} plus the prepositional phrase pros auton {πρὸς αὐτὸν | pros au-TÓN}, marking continued coming toward Paul as the focal point.
In context — Acts 28:23
After they had set a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in greater numbers. To them he was explaining and solemnly testifying about the kingdom of God , persuading them concerning Jesus both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening.
