Exegesis

The coordinating conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} then adds a second group, hoi en hymin phoboumenoi ton theon {οἱ ἐν ὑμῖν φοβούμενοι τὸν θεόν | hoí en hy-mîn pho-boú-me-noi tón the-ón} ‘those among you who fear God’. Here the participle phoboumenoi functions substantivally, describing God-fearing attendees within the assembly, probably Gentiles associated with the synagogue, and the prepositional phrase en hymin ‘among you’ marks them as a subset of the hearers.

Root and etymology

In contextActs 13:26

Men, brothers, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you who fear God , to us the word of this salvation has been sent.
