Exegesis
The direct objects are ton kosmon {τὸν κόσμον | ton kósmōn} and the expanded phrase panta ta en autō {πάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτῷ | pánta tà en autō̂}, where the prepositional phrase modifies the neuter plural substantive “all things.”
In context — Acts 17:24
The God who made the world and all things in it, this One, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.
