Kisah Para Rasul 19:7

19:7 (Now there were about twelve men in all.) ¹ 

Matius 27:54

27:54 Now when the centurion ²  and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and what took place, they were extremely terrified and said, “Truly this one was God’s Son!”

Lukas 7:16

7:16 Fear ³  seized them all, and they began to glorify ⁴  God, saying, “A great prophet ⁵  has appeared ⁶  among us!” and “God has come to help ⁷  his people!”

[19:7]  ¹ sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.

[27:54]  ² sn See the note on the word centurion in Matt 8:5.

[7:16]  ³ tn Or “Awe.” Grk “fear,” but the context and the following remark show that it is mixed with wonder; see L&N 53.59. This is a reaction to God’s work; see Luke 5:9.

[7:16]  ⁴ tn This imperfect verb has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.

[7:16]  ⁵ sn That Jesus was a great prophet was a natural conclusion for the crowd to make, given the healing; but Jesus is more than this. See Luke 9:8, 19-20.

[7:16]  ⁶ tn Grk “arisen.”

[7:16]  ⁷ tn Grk “visited,” but this conveys a different impression to a modern reader. L&N 85.11 renders the verb, “to be present, with the implication of concern – ‘to be present to help, to be on hand to aid.’ … ‘God has come to help his people’ Lk 7:16.” The language recalls Luke 1:68, 78.
