ACTS 14:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.”
But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. The next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe — the disciples' gathering (periodon, coming around) provides both witness and comfort. Paul's recovery (anistēmi, stood up) and return to the city is remarkable given the intensity of the attack, suggesting either divine restoration or extraordinary human resilience. The move to Derbe represents regrouping rather than retreat.
