Exegesis
The prepositional structure en te Hierosolymois kai enthade {ἔν τε Ἱεροσολύμοις καὶ ἐνθάδε | én te Hi-e-ro-so-lý-mois kaí en-thá-de} uses te…kai to form a “both…and” construction, spanning Jerusalem and the current location, and thereby stressing the breadth of the accusation.

And Festus said, “King Agrippa and all men who are present with us, you see this man about whom the whole multitude of the Jews appealed to me, both in Jerusalem and here, shouting that it was not right for him to live any longer.”
