Kisah Para Rasul 17:30-31

17:30 Therefore, although God has overlooked ¹  such times of ignorance, ²  he now commands all people ³  everywhere to repent, ⁴  17:31 because he has set ⁵  a day on which he is going to judge the world ⁶  in righteousness, by a man whom he designated, ⁷  having provided proof to everyone by raising ⁸  him from the dead.”

Kisah Para Rasul 24:25

24:25 While Paul ⁹  was discussing ¹⁰  righteousness, self-control, ¹¹  and the coming judgment, Felix ¹²  became ¹³  frightened and said, “Go away for now, and when I have an opportunity, ¹⁴  I will send for you.”

[17:30]  ¹ tn Or “has deliberately paid no attention to.”

[17:30]  ² tn Or “times when people did not know.”

[17:30]  ³ tn Here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") has been translated as a generic noun (“people”).

[17:30]  ⁴ sn He now commands all people everywhere to repent. God was now asking all mankind to turn to him. No nation or race was excluded.

[17:31]  ⁵ tn Or “fixed.”

[17:31]  ⁶ sn The world refers to the whole inhabited earth.

[17:31]  ⁷ tn Or “appointed.” BDAG 723 s.v. ὁρίζω 2.b has “of persons appoint, designate, declare: God judges the world ἐν ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὥρισεν through a man whom he has appointed Ac 17:31.”

[17:31]  sn A man whom he designated. Jesus is put in the position of eschatological judge. As judge of the living and the dead, he possesses divine authority (Acts 10:42).

[17:31]  ⁸ tn The participle ἀναστήσας (anasthsa") indicates means here.

[24:25]  ⁹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Paul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:25]  ¹⁰ tn Or “speaking about.”

[24:25]  ¹¹ tn Grk “and self-control.” This καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[24:25]  sn The topic of self-control was appropriate in view of the personal history of both Felix and Drusilla (see the note on “Drusilla” in the previous verse), and might well account for Felix’s anxiety.

[24:25]  ¹² sn See the note on Felix in 23:26.

[24:25]  ¹³ tn Grk “becoming.” The participle γενόμενος (genomenos) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[24:25]  ¹⁴ tn Or “when I find time.” BDAG 639 s.v. μεταλαμβάνω 2 has “καιρὸν μ. have an opportunity = find time…Ac 24:25.”
