Exegesis

The next clause, epepesen phobos epi pantas autous {ἐπέπεσεν φόβος ἐπὶ πάντας αὐτούς | e-pé-pe-sen phó-bos epì pán-tas au-toús}, employs an intransitive aorist verb with the nominative subject phobos and a prepositional phrase governing accusative objects to portray fear as something that “fell upon” the entire group, emphasizing suddenness and intensity.

In contextActs 19:17

And this became known to all the Jews and also the Greeks living in Ephesus, and fear fell upon all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified .
