Exegesis
The dative article tois {τοῖς | toîs} ‘to the’ marks the indirect object, further specified by the genitive apo ton ethnōn {ἀπὸ τῶν ἐθνῶν | apò tôn ethnôn} ‘from the Gentiles.’
In context — Acts 15:19
For this reason, I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God .
