General Information:

Antipatris was a city built by Herod in honor of his father, Antipater. It stood at a site located today in central Israel. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names) Here the first word "him" refers to Paul; the second use of the word "him" refers to Governor Felix.

Connecting Statement:

This ends Paul's time under arrest in Jerusalem and begins his time of arrest in Caesarea with Governor Felix.

So the soldiers obeyed their orders

The word "so" marks an event that happened because of something else that happened previously. In this case, the previous event is the chief captain's commanding the soldiers to escort Paul.

They took Paul and brought him by night

Here "brought" can be translated as "took." Alternate translation: "They got Paul and took him at night"
