Exegesis
The prepositional phrase dia ton kheiron Paulou {διὰ τῶν χειρῶν Παύλου | di-à tôn khei-rôn Paú-lou} uses dia with the genitive to express means or agency “through the hands of Paul,” with the genitive chain ton kheiron Paulou indicating that Paul’s hands are the instrumental channel of divine activity. In translation, the fronted subject “powers/miracles” is brought into a more typical English position after the verb to maintain natural syntax, while the idiom “not the usual” is rendered as “not ordinary” or “extraordinary” to convey the qualitative contrast implied by the participle tychousas.
In context — Acts 19:11
And God was doing miracles that were not ordinary through the hands of Paul .
