Exegesis
The genitive phrase ton Ioudaion {τῶν Ἰουδαίων | tôn Ioudaíōn} “of the Jews” modifies synagoge, specifying the ethnic and religious identity of the community that gathers there. English word order is adjusted to maintain natural flow while preserving the sequential progression (passing through intermediate cities, arriving at Thessalonica, locating the synagogue) and the prominence of the Jewish synagogue as the narrative point of interest.
In context — Acts 17:1
After having passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came into Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews .
