Exegesis
The nominalized adjective to asphalés {τὸ ἀσφαλὲς | tò asphalés} ‘the certainty’ denotes the reliable information sought, while dia ton thórybon {διὰ τὸν θόρυβον | diá tón thórybon} ‘because of the uproar’ identifies the barrier to clarity.
In context — Acts 21:34
Some in the crowd shouted one thing and others another; and since he could not learn what was certain because of the uproar , he commanded that he be taken into the barracks.
