2:13 But others jeered at the speakers, ¹  saying, “They are drunk on new wine!” ² 

Kisah Para Rasul 26:24

26:24 As Paul ³  was saying these things in his defense, Festus ⁴  exclaimed loudly, “You have lost your mind, ⁵  Paul! Your great learning is driving you insane!”

[2:13]  ¹ tn The words “the speakers” are not in the Greek text, but have been supplied for clarity. Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[2:13]  ² tn Grk “They are full of new wine!”

[2:13]  sn New wine refers to a new, sweet wine in the process of fermentation.

[26:24]  ³ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Paul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[26:24]  ⁴ sn See the note on Porcius Festus in 24:27.

[26:24]  ⁵ tn On the term translated “lost your mind” see BDAG 610 s.v. μαίνομαι, which has “you’re out of your mind, you’re raving, said to one whose enthusiasm seems to have outrun better judgment 26:24.”

[26:24]  sn The expression “You have lost your mind” would be said to someone who speaks incredible things, in the opinion of the hearer. Paul’s mention of the resurrection (v. 23) was probably what prompted Festus to say this.
