I've run into some questions in tomorrow's Gospel.  John 10:22 reads:

 EGENETO TOTE TA EGKAINIA EN TOIS IEROSOLUMOIS . . .

Can someone explain why the plurals (especially for Jerusalem)?

Then verse 28b reads:  . . .  KAI OUC hARPASEI TIS AUTA EK THS 
CEIROS MOU.  What purpose does 'TIS' serve in the sentence?

TIA  to anyone who can help.
