Exegesis
A temporal genitive absolute, neusantos autō tou hēgemonos legein {νεύσαντος αὐτῷ τοῦ ἡγεμόνος λέγειν | neu-san-tos au-tō tou hē-ge-mo-nos lé-gein}, establishes when Paul was permitted to speak, with the participle neusantos {νεύσαντος | neu-san-tos} and its genitive subject tou hēgemonos {τοῦ ἡγεμόνος | tou hē-ge-mo-nos} and the infinitive legein {λέγειν | lé-gein} indicating purpose.
In context — Acts 24:10
And Paul, after the governor had signaled to him to speak, answered, “Since I understand that you have served as a judge over this nation for many years, I respond for myself all the more readily.”
