    In Acts 20:13, πεζεύειν is a present active infinitive in the statement of what Paul had been directed to do. The APB renders the clause "for he himself had been directed to travel by land," contrasting his intended land travel with the others’ boat journey.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 20:13, the APB presents the action as "to travel by land." This wording confirms the clause’s overall movement rather than isolating every feature of the Greek form.
