Exegesis
The subject ho Paulos {ὁ Παῦλος | ho Paû-los} follows, and the object hena tōn hekatontarchōn {ἕνα τῶν ἑκατονταρχῶν | Hé-na tôn he-ka-ton-tar-KHŌN} specifies that only one centurion is selected from a group of such officers.
In context — Acts 23:17
But Paul called one of the centurions to him and said, “Take this young man to the commander , for he has something to report to him.”
