Vincent's NT Word Studies
14. Ran in (eisephdhsan). A feeble translation, even if this reading is retained. The verb means to leap or spring. The best texts read ejxephdhsan, sprang forth, probably from the gate of their house, or from the city gate, if the sacrifice was prepared in front of it.Crying out (krazontev). Inarticulate shouts to attract attention.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
14:14 {Having heard} (akousantes). Such elaborate preparation "with the multitudes" (sun tois oclois) spread rumours and some who spoke Greek told Paul and Barnabas. It is possible that the priest of Jupiter may have sent a formal request that the visiting "gods" might come out to the statue by the temple gates to make it a grand occasion. They rent their garments (diarrexantes). First aorist active participle from diarregnumi, old verb to rend in two. Like the high priest in #Mt 26:65 as if an act of sacrilege was about to be committed. It was strange conduct for the supposed gods! {Sprang forth} (exepedesan). First aorist (ingressive) active indicative of ekpedaw (note ek), old verb, here only in the N.T. It was all a sign of grief and horror with loud outcries (krazontes).
