Exegesis
The adjective eulabes {εὐλαβής | eulabḗs} ‘devout’ predicates the subject, while the prepositional phrase kata ton nomon {κατὰ τὸν νόμον | katá tón nómon} ‘according to the law’ functions adverbially, designating the standard of his devotion.
In context — Acts 22:12
And a certain Ananias, a devout man according to the law , was well spoken of by all the Jews who lived there.
