Some time later This phrase indicates a passage of time since the events previously described in Acts. The Greek word used here is "meta tinas hēmeras," which suggests a period that is not precisely defined but implies a significant enough duration for developments to occur. This passage of time allowed for the growth and establishment of the early church, as well as the maturation of its leaders. It reminds us that God's work often unfolds over time, requiring patience and perseverance. Paul said to Barnabas Let us return and visit the brothers in every town where we proclaimed the word of the Lord to see how they are doing Let us go again.--The proposal was characteristic of one whose heart was ever full of "the care of all the churches" (2Corinthians 11:28), ever making mention of them in his prayers night and day (Romans 1:9; Ephesians 1:16; Philippians 1:3). We may well believe that it was a desire to know, not only the general condition of the churches, but the spiritual growth of each individual member.

After some days is hardly equivalent to μετά τινας ἡμέρας. The expression in Greek is quite indefinite as to time, and may cover months as well as days.

We can hardly suppose the two periods together to have included much less than a year.
