Exegesis

The repeated peri introduces the final phrase peri tēs systrophēs tautēs {περὶ τῆς συστροφῆς ταύτης | pe-rì tês sy-stro-phês taú-tēs}, specifying that the unanswerable charge concerns ‘this disturbance’. In translation, the sequence of main clause, genitive absolute, and relative clause is preserved, while some phrases are reshaped into smoother English clauses to maintain the logical flow from danger, to lack of cause, to inability to provide a satisfactory explanation.

In contextActs 19:40

For we are in danger of being accused of a riot concerning what has happened today, with no cause existing, about which we will not be able to give an account regarding this disturbance .
