Exegesis
The coordinating kai {καὶ | kaí} introduces a shift to Gallio’s perspective, and the emphatic placement of ouden touton {οὐδὲν τούτων | oudén toútōn} ‘none of these things’ sets the subject of the final clause.
In context — Acts 18:17
Then all of them seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue , and they were beating him in front of the judgment seat . Yet none of these things was a concern to Gallio.
