Exegesis
Its direct object polloús {πολλοὺς | pollous} ‘many’ is followed by a series of partitive genitives introduced by apó {ἀπὸ | apó} ‘from’: nósōn {νόσων | nósōn} ‘diseases’, mastigṓn {μαστιγῶν | mastigṓn} ‘scourges’, and pneúmatōn ponērōn {πνευμάτων πονηρῶν | pneúmatōn ponērōn} ‘evil spirits’, specifying the ailments removed.
In context — Luke 7:21
In that hour He healed many from diseases and scourges and evil spirits, and to many blind He graciously gave sight.
