16:10 What does the word "we" indicate here?

The change from the third person pronoun (they), to the second person (we), indicates that Luke, the author of this book, was now a participant with Paul, Silas and Timothy on this apostolic mission and was giving a first hand report on the events taking place.

The general consensus among Bible commentators is that Luke joined the others at Troas (CP V6-11).

See also author's study Paul the Apostle - a Chosen Vessel unto God in his book Advanced Studies in the Christian Faith (Volume 2).
