Exegesis
The conjunction heos {ἕως | héōs} ‘until’ introduces the temporal boundary in heos Samouel tou prophētou {ἕως Σαμουὴλ τοῦ προφήτου | héōs Samoûēl toû prophḗtou} ‘Samuel the prophet,’ where tou prophētou is appositional, marking the transition to prophetic oversight. English renders the dative with ‘for,’ preserves ‘after these things,’ and retains ‘until’ to mirror the Greek sequence
In context — Acts 13:20
For about four hundred and fifty years and after these things He gave judges until Samuel the prophet
