Exegesis
The following demonstrative houtoi {οὗτοι | hoûtai} ‘these’ resumes and intensifies the identification in a deictic way, and the clause kai enthade pareisin {καὶ ἐνθάδε πάρεισιν | kaí entháde páreisin} adds the localizing element “also here are present,” shifting the focus from global disturbance to immediate local threat. In translation, the participial clauses are rendered with temporal and resultative finite clauses (“when they did not find… who have turned…”), preserving the causal and descriptive relationships while yielding idiomatic narrative English and maintaining the legal-confrontational setting.
In context — Acts 17:6
But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some brothers before the city officials, shouting, “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also.”
