Exegesis
The conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} leads into medena kolyein tōn idiōn autou {μηδένα κωλύειν τῶν ἰδίων αὐτοῦ | mēdéna kōlýeîn tōn idíōn autoû}, prohibiting any of his personal associates from hindering the final infinitive, hypēretein autō {ὑπηρετεῖν αὐτῷ | hypēreteîn autō̂}, “to serve him.” The structure balances firm custody with leniency and access, reflecting the governor’s nuanced directive.
In context — Acts 24:23
And he gave orders to the centurion that Paul should be kept in custody, yet have relief , and that none of his own should be hindered from serving him.
