Acts 16:13
Douay-Rheims
And upon the sabbath day, we went forth without the gate by a river side, where it seemed that there was prayer; and sitting down, we spoke to the women that were assembled.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
It is thought to mean a place of prayer — a grove by the shore, in which they were wont to assemble. The Jews used to assemble for prayer near the river banks. See Philo in Flacc. Joseph. Antiq. 1. xiv. c. x. § 24.
