Exegesis
The prepositional phrase pros allelous {πρὸς ἀλλήλους | pròs allḗlous} with the reciprocal pronoun emphasizes that the disagreement is mutual. The main narrative event is expressed by the imperfect apelyonto, conveying ongoing or developing departure, rendered with “began to leave” / “started to leave” in English to suggest a process rather than a single instant.
In context — Acts 28:25
But as they were disagreeing with one another, they began to leave after Paul had spoken one statement : “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers.”
