Exegesis
The dative phrase panti tō laō Israēl {παντὶ τῷ λαῷ Ἰσραήλ | pantí tôi laō Israḗl} marks the beneficiaries, “to all the people of Israel,” with panti modifying laō and Israēl standing in apposition. In English, the temporal phrase “Before His coming” or “Before He came” is placed clause-initially to preserve the Greek emphasis on preparatory action, followed by the subject “John” and then the content of his proclamation, thus maintaining the discourse focus on John’s role as forerunner while keeping the sentence natural in English.
In context — Acts 13:24
Before His coming, John had proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
