Exegesis
The phrase opens with anthropois {ἀνθρώποις | anthrṓ-pois} ‘men’, a dative plural noun that is qualified by the perfect active participle paradedokosi {παραδεδωκόσι | para-de-dō-kó-si} ‘having given over’. The participle functions adjectivally, describing the kind of men in view, and its perfect aspect portrays their decisive action as having lasting significance.
In context — Acts 15:26
Men who have given over their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ .
