17:2 The Lord told him: ³ 

Kisah Para Rasul 4:2-7

4:2 angry ⁴  because they were teaching the people and announcing ⁵  in Jesus the resurrection of the dead. 4:3 So ⁶  they seized ⁷  them and put them in jail ⁸  until the next day (for it was already evening). 4:4 But many of those who had listened to ⁹  the message ¹⁰  believed, and the number of the men ¹¹  came to about five thousand.

4:5 On the next day, ¹²  their rulers, elders, and experts in the law ¹³  came together ¹⁴  in Jerusalem. ¹⁵  4:6 Annas the high priest was there, and Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and others who were members of the high priest’s family. ¹⁶  4:7 After ¹⁷  making Peter and John ¹⁸  stand in their midst, they began to inquire, “By what power or by what name ¹⁹  did you do this?”

Kisah Para Rasul 4:1

The Arrest and Trial of Peter and John

4:1 While Peter and John ²⁰  were speaking to the people, the priests and the commander ²¹  of the temple guard ²²  and the Sadducees ²³  came up ²⁴  to them,

Matius 14:17-20

14:17 They ²⁵  said to him, “We have here only five loaves and two fish.” 14:18 “Bring them here to me,” he replied. 14:19 Then ²⁶  he instructed the crowds to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and two fish, and looking up to heaven he gave thanks and broke the loaves. He gave them to the disciples, ²⁷  who in turn gave them to the crowds. ²⁸  14:20 They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the broken pieces left over, twelve baskets full.

Matius 15:36-38

15:36 he took the seven loaves and the fish, and after giving thanks, he broke them and began giving them to the disciples, who then gave them to the crowds. ²⁹  15:37 They ³⁰  all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the broken pieces left over, seven baskets full. 15:38 Not counting children and women, ³¹  there were four thousand men who ate. ³² 

[17:4]  ¹ tn Heb “commanded.”

[17:4]  ² tn Heb “to provide for you.”

[17:2]  ³ tn Heb “and the word of the Lord came to him, saying.”

[4:2]  ⁴ tn Or “greatly annoyed,” “provoked.”

[4:2]  ⁵ tn Or “proclaiming.”

[4:3]  ⁶ tn Grk “And” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the logical sequence of events.

[4:3]  ⁷ tn Or “they arrested”; Grk “they laid hands on.”

[4:3]  ⁸ tn Or “prison,” “custody.”

[4:4]  ⁹ tn Or “had heard.”

[4:4]  ¹⁰ tn Or “word.”

[4:4]  ¹¹ tn In the historical setting it is likely that only men are referred to here. The Greek term ἀνήρ (anhr) usually refers to males or husbands rather than people in general. Thus to translate “of the people” would give a false impression of the number, since any women and children were apparently not included in the count.

[4:5]  ¹² tn Grk “It happened that on the next day.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[4:5]  ¹³ tn Or “and scribes.” The traditional rendering of γραμματεύς (grammateu") as “scribe” does not communicate much to the modern English reader, for whom the term might mean “professional copyist,” if it means anything at all. The people referred to here were recognized experts in the law of Moses and in traditional laws and regulations. Thus “expert in the law” comes closer to the meaning for the modern reader.

[4:5]  sn Experts in the law would have been mostly like the Pharisees in approach. Thus various sects of Judaism were coming together against Jesus.

[4:5]  ¹⁴ tn Or “law assembled,” “law met together.”

[4:5]  ¹⁵ map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[4:6]  ¹⁶ sn The high priest’s family. This family controlled the high priesthood as far back as a.d. 6. Annas, Caiaphas, and Alexander were all high priests at one time (though Alexander held that office after this event).

[4:7]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “And after.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, καί (kai) has not been translated here. Instead a new sentence is begun in the translation at the beginning of v. 7.

[4:7]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “making them”; the referents (Peter and John) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

[4:7]  ¹⁹ sn By what name. The issue of the “name” comes up again here. This question, meaning “by whose authority,” surfaces an old dispute (see Luke 20:1-8). Who speaks for God about the ancient faith?

[4:1]  ²⁰ tn Grk “While they”; the referents (Peter and John) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

[4:1]  ²¹ tn Or “captain.”

[4:1]  ²² tn Grk “the official of the temple,” a title for the commander of the Jewish soldiers guarding the temple (thus the translation, “the commander of the temple guard”). See L&N 37.91.

[4:1]  sn The commander of the temple guard was the title of the officer commanding the Jewish soldiers responsible for guarding and keeping order in the temple courts in Jerusalem.

[4:1]  ²³ sn The Sadducees controlled the official political structures of Judaism at this time, being the majority members of the Sanhedrin. They were known as extremely strict on law and order issues (Josephus, J. W. 2.8.2 [2.119], 2.8.14 [2.164-166]; Ant. 13.5.9 [13.171-173], 13.10.6 [13.293-298], 18.1.2 [18.11], 18.1.4 [18.16-17], 20.9.1 [20.199]; Life 2 [10-11]). See also Matt 3:7; 16:1-12; 22:23-34; Mark 12:18-27; Luke 20:27-38; Acts 5:17; 23:6-8.

[4:1]  ²⁴ tn Or “approached.” This verb often denotes a sudden appearing (BDAG 418 s.v. ἐφίστημι 1).

[14:17]  ²⁵ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[14:19]  ²⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “Then.”

[14:19]  ²⁷ tn Grk “And after instructing the crowds to recline for a meal on the grass, after taking the five loaves and the two fish, after looking up to heaven, he gave thanks, and after breaking the loaves he gave them to the disciples.” Although most of the participles are undoubtedly attendant circumstance, there are but two indicative verbs – “he gave thanks” and “he gave.” The structure of the sentence thus seems to focus on these two actions and has been translated accordingly.

[14:19]  ²⁸ tn Grk “to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowds.”

[15:36]  ²⁹ tn Grk “was giving them to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowd.”

[15:37]  ³⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[15:38]  ³¹ tc ‡ Although most witnesses (B C L W ˹³ 33 Ï f sy^s,p,h mae) read “women and children” instead of “children and women,” it is likely that the majority’s reading is a harmonization to Matt 14:21. “Children and women” is found in early and geographically widespread witnesses (e.g., א D [Θ Ë¹] 579 lat sy^c sa bo), and has more compelling internal arguments on its side, suggesting that this is the original reading. NA²⁷, however, agrees with the majority of witnesses.

[15:38]  ³² tn Grk “And those eating were four thousand men, apart from children and women.”
