Exegesis
Direct discourse follows, marked in Greek simply by phesin and then the vocative andres Ephesioi {Ἄνδρες Ἐφέσιοι | Ándres Ephésioi} ‘Men of Ephesus’, which we reproduce with an address that maintains the communal focus.
In context — Acts 19:35
But after the scribe had quieted the crowd, he said, “Men of Ephesus, who is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is the temple-keeper of the great Artemis and of the thing that fell from Zeus?”
