Exegesis
The object clause tēn peri toutōn zētēsin {τὴν περὶ τούτων ζήτησιν | tḗn perí toútōn zḗtēsin} combines article, prepositional phrase, and noun to specify a particular inquiry focused “concerning these things,” that is, the charges just mentioned in the context.
In context — Acts 25:20
But as I was at a loss concerning the inquiry about these things, I was saying whether he might wish to go to Jerusalem and there be judged about these matters.
