Exegesis
The question opens with ti {τί | tí} followed by apiston {ἄπιστον | á-pis-ton}, creating the idiomatic sense “what is unbelievable” or “why is it incredible,” where the neuter adjective functions as a predicate accusative to an implied “thing.”
In context — Acts 26:8
Why is it considered unbelievable by you that God raises the dead ?
