16:30 Ahab son of Omri did more evil in the sight of ¹  the Lord than all who were before him.

1 Raja-raja 16:2

16:2 “I raised you up ²  from the dust and made you ruler over my people Israel. Yet you followed in Jeroboam’s footsteps ³  and encouraged my people Israel to sin; their sins have made me angry. ⁴ 

Kisah Para Rasul 8:26

Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch

8:26 Then an angel of the Lord ⁵  said to Philip, ⁶  “Get up and go south ⁷  on the road that goes down from Jerusalem ⁸  to Gaza.” (This is a desert ⁹  road.) ¹⁰ 

Kisah Para Rasul 8:2

8:2 Some ¹¹  devout men buried Stephen and made loud lamentation ¹²  over him. ¹³ 

Kisah Para Rasul 22:2

22:2 (When they heard ¹⁴  that he was addressing ¹⁵  them in Aramaic, ¹⁶  they became even ¹⁷  quieter.) ¹⁸  Then ¹⁹  Paul said,

Mikha 6:16

6:16 You implement the regulations of Omri,

and all the practices of Ahab’s dynasty; ²⁰ 

you follow their policies. ²¹ 

Therefore I will make you an appalling sight, ²² 

the city’s ²³  inhabitants will be taunted derisively, ²⁴ 

and nations will mock all of you.” ²⁵ 

[16:30]  ¹ tn Heb “in the eyes of.”

[16:2]  ² tn The Hebrew text has “because” at the beginning of the sentence. In the Hebrew text vv. 2-3 are one sentence comprised of a causal clause giving the reason for divine punishment (v. 2) and the main clause announcing the punishment (v. 3). The translation divides this sentence for stylistic reasons.

[16:2]  ³ tn Heb “walked in the way of Jeroboam.”

[16:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “angering me by their sins.”

[8:26]  ⁵ tn Or “the angel of the Lord.” See the note on the word “Lord” in 5:19.

[8:26]  ⁶ tn Grk “Lord spoke to Philip, saying.” The redundant participle λέγων (legwn) has not been translated.

[8:26]  ⁷ tn Or “Get up and go about noon.” The phrase κατὰ μεσημβρίαν (kata meshmbrian) can be translated either “about noon” (L&N 67.74) or “toward the south” (L&N 82.4). Since the angel’s command appears to call for immediate action (“Get up”) and would not therefore need a time indicator, a directional reference (“toward the south”) is more likely here.

[8:26]  ⁸ map For the location of Jerusalem see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[8:26]  ⁹ tn Or “wilderness.”

[8:26]  ¹⁰ tn The words “This is a desert road” are probably best understood as a comment by the author of Acts, but it is possible they form part of the angel’s speech to Philip, in which case the verse would read: “Get up and go south on the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza – the desert road.”

[8:26]  sn The concluding note about the road appears to be a parenthetical note by the author.

[8:2]  ¹¹ tn “Some” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.

[8:2]  ¹² sn Made loud lamentation. For someone who was stoned to death, lamentation was normally not allowed (m. Sanhedrin 6:6). The remark points to an unjust death.

[8:2]  ¹³ tn Or “mourned greatly for him.”

[22:2]  ¹⁴ tn ἀκούσαντες (akousante") has been taken temporally.

[22:2]  ¹⁵ tn Or “spoke out to.” L&N 33.27 has “to address an audience, with possible emphasis upon loudness – ‘to address, to speak out to.’ πολλῆς δέ σιγῆς γενομένης προσεφώνησεν τῇ ᾿Εβραίδι διαλέκτῳ ‘when they were quiet, he addressed them in Hebrew’ Ac 21:40.”

[22:2]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “in the Hebrew language.” See the note on “Aramaic” in 21:40.

[22:2]  ¹⁷ tn BDAG 613-14 s.v. μᾶλλον 1 “Abs. μ. can mean to a greater degree (than before), even more, now more than ever Lk 5:15; Jn 5:18; 19:8; Ac 5:14; 22:2; 2 Cor 7:7.”

[22:2]  ¹⁸ tn BDAG 440 s.v. ἡσυχία 2 has “παρέχειν ἡσυχίαν quiet down, give a hearing…Ac 22:2.”

[22:2]  sn This is best taken as a parenthetical note by the author.

[22:2]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “and.” Since this represents a continuation of the speech begun in v. 1, καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the logical sequence.

[6:16]  ²⁰ tn Heb “the edicts of Omri are kept, and all the deeds of the house of Ahab.”

[6:16]  ²¹ tn Heb “and you walk in their plans.”

[6:16]  sn The Omride dynasty, of which Ahab was the most infamous king, had a reputation for implementing unjust and oppressive measures. See 1 Kgs 21.

[6:16]  ²² tn The Hebrew term שַׁמָּה (shammah) can refer to “destruction; ruin,” or to the reaction it produces in those who witness the destruction.

[6:16]  ²³ tn Heb “her”; the referent (the city) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[6:16]  ²⁴ tn Heb “[an object] of hissing,” which was a way of taunting someone.

[6:16]  ²⁵ tc The translation assumes an emendation of the MT’s עַמִּי (’ammi, “my people”) to עַמִּים (’ammim, “nations”).

[6:16]  tn Heb “and the reproach of my people you will bear.” The second person verb is plural here, in contrast to the singular forms used in vv. 13-15.
