Exegesis
The sentence begins with the demonstrative subject houtoi {οὗτοι | hoû-toi} followed by the postpositive conjunction de {δὲ | dè}, forming the main clause houtoi de ēsan eugenesteroi tōn en Thessalonikē {οὗτοι δὲ ἦσαν εὐγενέστεροι τῶν ἐν Θεσσαλονίκῃ} “these, however, were more noble(-minded) than those in Thessalonica.”
In context — Acts 17:11
But these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all eagerness , examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
