# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
Paul, Barnabas, Judas, and Silas leave for Antioch.
|
|
|
|
# So they, when they were dismissed, came down to Antioch
|
|
|
|
The word "they" refers to Paul, Barnabas, Judas, and Silas. Alternate translation: "So when the four men were dismissed, they came down to Antioch"
|
|
|
|
# when they were dismissed
|
|
|
|
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "when the apostles and elders dismissed the four men" or "when the believers in Jerusalem sent them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

# came down to Antioch
|
|
|
|
The phrase "came down" is used here because Antioch is lower in elevation than Jerusalem.
