Kisah Para Rasul 9:29-30

9:29 He was speaking and debating ¹  with the Greek-speaking Jews, ²  but they were trying to kill him. 9:30 When the brothers found out about this, they brought him down to Caesarea ³  and sent him away to Tarsus.

[9:29]  ¹ tn Or “arguing.” BDAG 954 s.v. συζητέω 2 gives “dispute, debate, argue…τινί ‘w. someone’” for συνεζήτει (sunezhtei).

[9:29]  ² tn Grk “the Hellenists,” but this descriptive term is largely unknown to the modern English reader. The translation “Greek-speaking Jews” attempts to convey something of who these were, but it was more than a matter of language spoken; it involved a degree of adoption of Greek culture as well.

[9:30]  ³ sn Caesarea was a city on the coast of Palestine, south of Mount Carmel (not Caesarea Philippi). See the note on Caesarea in Acts 10:1.
