{And when Paul was minded to enter in unto the people}
(Paulou de boulomenou eiselthein eis ton d(886d)on). Genitive
absolute. Plainly Paul wanted to face the howling mob, whether it
was the occasion pictured in  2Co 1:9  or not. "St. Paul was not
the man to leave his comrades in the lurch" (Knowling). {Suffered
him not} (ouk ei(936e) auton). Imperfect of ea(935c), common verb to
allow, what Gildersleeve called the negative imperfect
(Robertson, _Grammar_, p. 885), denoting resistance to pressure.
The more Paul insisted on going the more the disciples refused to
agree to it and they won.
