Exegesis
The repeated article–noun constructions ten Amphipolin {τὴν Ἀμφίπολιν | tḕn Amphípolin} and ten Apollonian {τὴν Ἀπολλωνίαν | tḕn Apollōnían} mark the intermediate cities as direct objects of the participle, indicating that these locations were passed through rather than the final destination.
In context — Acts 17:1
After having passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came into Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews .
