Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when we had taken our leave one of another,.... The Alexandrian copy reads, "having prayed, we saluted one another"; with a kiss, as in Acts 20:37 and so parted:
we took ship; or went aboard the ship,
and they returned home again; to their own houses, as the Syriac version renders it; for by "their own", as it is in the Greek text, cannot be meant their families, their wives, and children, for these were along with them, but their habitations; see John 16:32.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 21:6. Taken - leave — ασπασαμενοι; Having given each other the kiss of peace, as was the constant custom of the Jews and primitive Christians.
They returned home — That is, the men, their wives, and their children.
