KAI la-BON-tes to hi-ka-NON pa-RA tou i-A-so-nos KAI tôn loi-PON a-PE-ly-san au-TOUS
Exegesis
The preposition para {παρὰ | pará} ‘from’ governs the genitives tou Iasonos {τοῦ Ἰάσονος | toû Iásonos} and ton loipon {τῶν λοιπῶν | tôn loipôn}, indicating Jason and the rest as the sources from whom this security is obtained; the substantive use of loipon highlights that additional persons besides Jason are involved.
In context — Acts 17:9
And having taken what was sufficient from Jason and the rest , they released them.
