Exegesis
The participle ἀγνοήσαντες takes two objects in asyndetic coordination: τοῦτον {τοῦτον | toûton} ‘this one,’ referring to Jesus, and τὰς φωνὰς τῶν προφητῶν {τὰς φωνὰς τῶν προφητῶν | tàs phōnàs tōn prophētôn} ‘the voices of the prophets.’ The phrase τὰς …
ἀναγινωσκομένας {ἀναγινωσκομένας | anaginōskoménas} is a participial modifier with a repeated article τὰς {τὰς | tàs}, forming an article–participle construction that specifies these voices as “the ones being read.”
In context — Acts 13:27
For those who dwell in Jerusalem and their rulers, not recognizing Him or the voices of the prophets that are read every Sabbath , by condemning Him they fulfilled them.
