Kisah Para Rasul 16:29

16:29 Calling for lights, the jailer ⁹  rushed in and fell down ¹⁰  trembling at the feet of Paul and Silas.

[1:26]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the continuity with the preceding verse. Greek style often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” but English style does not.

[1:26]  ² tn Grk “and the lot fell on Matthias.”

[1:26]  ³ tn Or “he was counted as one of the apostles along with the eleven.”

[5:35]  ⁴ tn Grk “said to them”; the referent (the council) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:35]  ⁵ tn Or “Israelite men,” although this is less natural English. The Greek term here is ἀνήρ (anhr), which only exceptionally is used in a generic sense of both males and females. In this context, it is highly unlikely that this is a generic usage, since Gamaliel was addressing the Sanhedrin, the Jewish high council, which would have been exclusively male.

[5:35]  ⁶ tn Or “men, be careful.”

[14:9]  ⁷ tn Grk “speaking, who.” The relative pronoun has been replaced by the noun “Paul,” and a new sentence begun in the translation because an English relative clause would be very awkward here.

[14:9]  ⁸ tn Or “looked.”

[16:29]  ⁹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the jailer) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:29]  ¹⁰ tn Or “and prostrated himself.”

[16:29]  sn Fell down. The earthquake and the freeing of the prisoners showed that God’s power was present. Such power could only be recognized. The open doors opened the jailer’s heart.
