(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καί εὑρών ἤγαγεν εἰς Ἀντιοχείαν ἐγένετο Δέ αὐτοῖς καί ἐνιαυτόν ὅλον συναχθῆναι ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ καί διδάξαι ὄχλον ἱκανόν χρηματίσαι τέ πρώτως ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ τούς μαθητάς Χριστιανούς)

This wording suggests that Barnabas and Saul did not know initially how long they would be meeting with the church in Antioch, but in the end it amounted to a whole year.
