Exegesis
The first clause begins with the partitive genitive construction polloi tōn echontōn {πολλοὶ τῶν ἐχόντων | pol-loí tō̂n e-chón-tōn} ‘many of those who had’, which confines the affected group.
In context — Acts 8:7
For unclean spirits , crying out with a loud voice, were coming out of many who had them, and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed .
