Exegesis
The sentence begins with the nominative phrase ho theos tou laou toutou Israēl {ὁ θεὸς τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου Ἰσραὴλ | ho theós tou laou toútou Israḗl}, where the head noun theos is qualified by the genitive tou laou toutou, forming an attributive genitive “the God of this people,” and further specified appositionally by Israēl, identifying the people as Israel.
In context — Acts 13:17
The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people great while they were sojourning in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm He led them out of it.
