Kisah Para Rasul 28:20

28:20 So for this reason I have asked to see you and speak with you, for I am bound with this chain because of the hope of Israel.” ⁶ 

Yeremia 40:4

40:4 But now, Jeremiah, today I will set you free ⁷  from the chains on your wrists. If you would like to come to Babylon with me, come along and I will take care of you. ⁸  But if you prefer not to come to Babylon with me, you are not required to do so. ⁹  You are free to go anywhere in the land you want to go. ¹⁰  Go wherever you choose.” ¹¹

Titus 1:16

[21:33]  ¹ tn Grk “the chiliarch” (an officer in command of a thousand soldiers). See note on the term “commanding officer” in v. 31.

[21:33]  ² tn Grk “seized.”

[21:33]  ³ tn The two chains would be something like handcuffs (BDAG 48 s.v. ἅλυσις and compare Acts 28:20).

[21:33]  ⁴ tn Grk “and he.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was begun in the translation, and καί (kai) has been replaced with a semicolon. “Then” has been supplied after “he” to clarify the logical sequence.

[21:33]  ⁵ tn Grk “and what it is”; this has been simplified to “what.”

[28:20]  ⁶ sn The hope of Israel. A reference to Israel’s messianic hope. Paul’s preaching was in continuity with this Jewish hope (Acts 1:3; 8:12; 14:22; 19:8; 20:25).

[40:4]  ⁷ tn The verb here is an example of the perfect of resolve where the speaker announces his intention to do something according to IBHS 488-89 §30.5.1d. The word “Jeremiah” is supplied in the translation to avoid the possible misunderstanding that the you is still plural.

[40:4]  ⁸ tn Or “look out for you.” See 39:12 and the translator’s note there.

[40:4]  ⁹ tn Or “Stay here”; Heb “Forbear.” The imperative is used in a permissive sense; “you may forbear.” See GKC 324 §110.b and compare usage in Gen 50:6.

[40:4]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “See all the land [or the whole land] is before you.” For this idiom see BDB 817 s.v. פָּנֶה II.4.a(f) and compare the usage in Gen 20:15; 47:6.

[40:4]  ¹¹ tn Heb “Unto the good and the right in your eyes to go, go there.”

[6:2]  ¹² sn A quotation from Exod 20:12 and Deut 5:16.
