“And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”
If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them — the dust-shaking communicates complete disassociation from the unreceptive town. Leave their town (exerchomenoi, going out, departing) and shake the dust as a testimony — the act itself is the testimony, a public declaration that the opportunity was offered and refused.
