    In Acts 20:15, the accusative singular feminine form occurs after the travelers arrive opposite Chios and before they come to Miletus. The APB renders the itinerary, "the next day we put in at Samos," presenting it as a stop in the journey.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 20:15, the APB includes the place in the travel sequence as "we put in at Samos." The verse is read as a whole, but its itinerary confirms the form's place-name use.
