This chapter is related in meaning to chapter 45, gathering together. After a gathering there is the time when people disperse. This is not the same as splitting apart since there is an intention to go away and do things and then to meet again.
Preparations for the next gathering are indicated here, in the text, by the building of churches but all kinds of preparations may be useful.
