Exegesis
The dative phrase pasi tois Ioudaiois {πᾶσι τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις | pâ-si toîs I-ou-daí-ois} marks the scope “among all the Jews,” while kata ten oikoumenen {κατὰ τὴν οἰκουμένην | ka-tá tēn oi-kou-mé-nēn} intensifies it to “throughout the inhabited world.”
In context — Acts 24:5
For we have found this man to be a pestilence : he incites uprisings among all the Jews throughout the inhabited world, and he is a leading figure of the sect of the Nazarenes.
