Exegesis
The participle poiēsantes {ποιήσαντες | poi-ḗ-san-tes} “having formed” with its object systrophēn {συστροφὴν | sy-stro-phḗn} “conspiracy” precedes the subject hoi Ioudaioi {οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι | hoi I-ou-daî-oi}, forming a participial clause that gives background action leading up to the main verb.
In context — Acts 23:12
But when day had come, the Jews , having formed a conspiracy, bound themselves under a curse , saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.
