Exegesis
The dative pronoun autois {αὐτοῖς | au-toîs} functions as an indirect object with dielexato, “he reasoned with them,” preserving the interpersonal nature of the exchange.
In context — Acts 17:2
As was his custom , Paul went in to them, and for three Sabbaths he reasoned with them from the Scriptures .
