Exegesis
The verse opens with the prepositional phrase peri hou {περὶ οὗ | perì hoû} ‘concerning whom’, which frontloads the topic of reference before introducing the main verb.
In context — Acts 25:26
Concerning whom I have nothing certain to write to the lord , therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after an examination has taken place I might have something to write.
