Exegesis

The verse opens with the prepositional phrase ek de tou ochlou {ἐκ δὲ τοῦ ὄχλου | ek de tou ó-chlos} ‘but from the crowd,’ foregrounding the crowd as the source of the action even as the subject of synebibasan {συνεβίβασαν | sy-ne-bí-basán} ‘they brought forward’ remains implicit.

In contextActs 19:33

But from the crowd they brought forward Alexander, the Jews having put him forward; and Alexander, having motioned with his hand, wanted to make a defense to the crowd .
