Exegesis
The subject is expressed by the articular phrase hoi peri auton {οἱ περὶ αὐτὸν | hoi pe-rì au-tón} ‘those around Him’, where peri {περὶ | pe-rí} with the accusative auton {αὐτὸν | au-tón} idiomatically identifies the circle of close associates, not physical location alone.
In context — Luke 22:49
But when those around Him saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord , shall we strike with the sword?”
