Exegesis
The participle katakyrieusas {κατακυριεύσας | katakyrieúsas} and the finite verb ischysen {ἰσχύσεν | ischýsen} are coordinated to present first the act of overpowering and then its successful result, with amphoterōn {ἀμφοτέρων | amphotérōn} underscoring that the entire group was subdued.
In context — Acts 19:16
And the man in whom the evil spirit was, leaping upon them and mastering all of them, prevailed against them so that they fled from that house naked and wounded.
