Kisah Para Rasul 2:46-47

2:46 Every day ¹  they continued to gather together by common consent in the temple courts, ²  breaking bread from ³  house to house, sharing their food with glad ⁴  and humble hearts, ⁵  2:47 praising God and having the good will ⁶  of all the people. And the Lord was adding to their number every day ⁷  those who were being saved.

Kisah Para Rasul 11:18

11:18 When they heard this, ⁸  they ceased their objections ⁹  and praised ¹⁰  God, saying, “So then, God has granted the repentance ¹¹  that leads to life even to the Gentiles.” ¹² 

[2:46]  ¹ tn BDAG 437 s.v. ἡμέρα 2.c has “every day” for this phrase.

[2:46]  ² tn Grk “in the temple.” This is actually a reference to the courts surrounding the temple proper, and has been translated accordingly.

[2:46]  ³ tn Here κατά (kata) is used as a distributive (BDAG 512 s.v. B.1.d).

[2:46]  ⁴ sn The term glad (Grk “gladness”) often refers to joy brought about by God’s saving acts (Luke 1:14, 44; also the related verb in 1:47; 10:21).

[2:46]  ⁵ tn Grk “with gladness and humbleness of hearts.” It is best to understand καρδίας (kardias) as an attributed genitive, with the two nouns it modifies actually listing attributes of the genitive noun which is related to them.

[2:47]  ⁶ tn Or “the favor.”

[2:47]  ⁷ tn BDAG 437 s.v. ἡμέρα 2.c has “every day” for this phrase.

[11:18]  ⁸ tn Grk “these things.”

[11:18]  ⁹ tn Or “became silent,” but this would create an apparent contradiction with the subsequent action of praising God. The point, in context, is that they ceased objecting to what Peter had done.

[11:18]  ¹⁰ tn Or “glorified.”

[11:18]  ¹¹ sn Here the summary phrase for responding to the gospel is the repentance that leads to life. Note how the presence of life is tied to the presence of the Spirit (cf. John 4:7-42; 7:37-39).

[11:18]  ¹² sn In the Greek text the phrase even to the Gentiles is in an emphatic position.
