Exegesis
The fronted accusative object tous khronous tes agnoias {τοὺς χρόνους τῆς ἀγνοίας | toùs chrónous tês agnoías} “the times of ignorance” sets the temporal sphere in focus before the main assertion, emphasizing that an entire era is in view.
In context — Acts 17:30
So then, God , having overlooked the times of ignorance , now commands all people everywhere to repent.
