Exegesis
The genitive prepositional phrase kata tou laou kai tou nomou kai tou topou toutou {κατὰ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ τοῦ νόμου καὶ τοῦ τόπου τούτου | katá tou laoû kaí tou nómou kaí tou tópou toútou} uses kata with three genitives in a climactic triad denoting hostility toward the people, the Torah, and the temple precinct.
In context — Acts 21:28
They shouted, “Men of Israel, help! This is the man who teaches everyone everywhere against the people, and the law , and this place; and furthermore, he brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place.”
