Kisah Para Rasul 5:23

5:23 “We found the jail locked securely and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them, ⁶  we found no one inside.”

Kisah Para Rasul 23:18

23:18 So the centurion ⁷  took him and brought him to the commanding officer ⁸  and said, “The prisoner Paul called ⁹  me and asked me to bring this young man to you because he has something to tell you.”

[2:33]  ¹ tn The aorist participle ὑψωθείς (Juywqei") could be taken temporally: “So then, after he was exalted…” In the translation the more neutral “exalted” (a shorter form of “having been exalted”) was used to preserve the ambiguity of the original Greek.

[2:33]  ² sn The expression the right hand of God represents supreme power and authority. Its use here sets up the quotation of Ps 110:1 in v. 34.

[2:33]  ³ tn The aorist participle λαβών (labwn) could be taken temporally: “So then, after he was exalted…and received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit.” In the translation the more neutral “having received” was used to preserve the ambiguity of the original Greek.

[2:33]  ⁴ tn Here the genitive τοῦ πνεύματος (tou pneumato") is a genitive of apposition; the promise consists of the Holy Spirit.

[2:33]  ⁵ sn The use of the verb poured out looks back to 2:17-18, where the same verb occurs twice.

[5:23]  ⁶ tn The word “them” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects in Greek were often omitted when clear from the context, but must be supplied for the modern English reader.

[23:18]  ⁷ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the centurion) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[23:18]  ⁸ tn Grk “the chiliarch” (an officer in command of a thousand soldiers). See note on the term “commanding officer” in v. 10.

[23:18]  ⁹ tn Grk “calling.” The participle προσκαλεσάμενος (proskalesameno") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.
