Exegesis
The prepositional phrase eis oikian {εἰς οἰκίαν | eis oi-kí-an} indicates the goal of the movement, while the genitive tinos {τινὸς | ti-nòs} with onomati {ὀνόματι | o-nó-ma-ti} and the names Titiou Ioustou {Τιτίου Ἰούστου | Ti-tí-ou I-ús-tou} specifies the otherwise indefinite “certain” man by giving his personal name.
In context — Acts 18:7
And after departing from there, he entered into the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God , whose house was adjoining the synagogue .
