Exegesis
The participle idon {ἰδὼν | idṑn} ‘having seen’ follows, taking the perfect passive participle aneōgmenos {ἀνεῳγμένας | aneōgménas} ‘having been opened’ and its object tas thyras tēs phylakēs {τὰς θύρας τῆς φυλακῆς | tàs thýras tês phylakês} ‘the prison doors.’
In context — Acts 16:27
When the jailer woke to find the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, assuming the prisoners had escaped.
