SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:6
Y abrazndonos los unos a los otros, subimos al barco, y ellos se volvieron a sus casas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Acts 21:6
Verse 6. Taken-leave] aspasamenoi; 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.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. And when we had taken our leave one of another , etc.] 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, 19:27).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-7 - Providence must be acknowledged when our affairs go on well. Whereve Paul came, he inquired what disciples were there, and found them out Foreseeing his troubles, from love to him, and concern for the church they wrongly thought it would be most for the glory of God that he should continue at liberty; but their earnestness to dissuade him from it, renders his pious resolution the more illustrious. He has taught u by example, as well as by rule, to pray always, to pray withou ceasing. Their last farewell was sweetened with prayer.

Robertson's NT Word Studies
21:6 {Beach} (aigialon). As in #Mt 13:2 which see. this scene is in public as at Miletus, but they did not care. {Bade each other farewell} (apespasameqa allelous). First aorist middle of apaspazomai. 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} (eis ta idia). 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.
