Exegesis
A chain of attributive accusative phrases, each introduced by ten {τὴν | tḕn}, further specifies biosin: first ek neotetos {ἐκ νεότητος | ek ne-ó-tē-tos} “from youth,” then ap arches {ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς | ap ar-khês} “from the beginning,” and finally the participle genomenen {γενομένην | ge-no-mén-ēn} “having taken place,” which is grammatically bound to biosin and describes the life as something that unfolded over time.
In context — Acts 26:4
So then, all the Jews know my manner of life from my youth, which from the beginning took place among my nation and in Jerusalem.
