Exegesis
The indefinite pronoun tines {τινες | tí-nes} “some” narrows the subject to a subset of people, further specified by the prepositional phrase ek ton Hierosolymiton {ἐκ τῶν Ἱεροσολυμιτῶν | ek tôn Hi-e-ro-so-lu-mi-tôn} “from the Jerusalemites,” marking them as local inhabitants and contrasting them with pilgrims or outsiders.
