Exegesis

The prepositional phrase meta polles bias {μετὰ πολλῆς βίας | me-tá pol-lê:s bí-as} “with great violence” intensifies the action, while the genitive phrase ek tōn kheirōn hēmōn {ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν ἡμῶν | ek tôn khei-rô:n hē-mô:n} “from our hands” marks the transfer of custody.

In contextActs 24:7

But Lysias the commander came on the scene and, with much violence , took him away from our hands.
