Exegesis
The noun Paulos {Παῦλος | Paû-los} serves as the subject, immediately followed by the attendant circumstance participle epilexamenos {ἐπιλεξάμενος | e-pi-le-xá-me-nos} ‘having chosen’, which frames the ensuing action.
In context — Acts 15:40
But Paul chose Silas, and he went out, having been entrusted to the grace of the Lord by the brothers .
