‏ Acts 21:6

 Beach ( αιγιαλον ). As in Mt 13:2 which see. This scene is in public as at Miletus, but they did not care.

 Bade each other farewell ( απεσπασαμεθα αλληλους ). First aorist middle of  απασπαζομα. Rare compound, here alone in the N.T. Tender scene, but "no bonds of long comradeship, none of the clinging love" (Furneaux) seen at Miletus (Ac 20:37f.).

 Home again ( εις τα ιδια ). To their own places as of the Beloved Disciple in Joh 19:27 and of Jesus in Joh 1:11. This idiom in the papyri also.
