Acts 1:3-EN POLLOIS TEKMHRIOIS

Greetings!

Acts 1:3 reads (in part):

hOIS KAI PARESTHSEN hEAUTON ZWNTA META TO PAQEIN AUTON EN POLLOIS
TEKMHRIOIS

Is the following paraphrase too strong?

"To his apostles he presented himself alive after suffering, by
demonstrating many irrefutable proofs."

The primary part of the paraphrase I am concerned about is the
rendering of TEKMHRIOIS. Does the word indicate that prima facie
evidence is under discussion?

Any thoughts would be appreciated,

Edgar Foster
