Exegesis

The prepositional phrase peri zētēmatōn tou nomou autōn {περὶ ζητημάτων τοῦ νόμου αὐτῶν | perì zētēmatōn tou nómou autôn} specifies the sphere of the accusations, “concerning questions of their law,” with the genitive tou nomou autōn marking the law as belonging to “them” and highlighting its distinctly Jewish character.
