Kisah Para Rasul 13:37

13:37 but the one ¹  whom God raised up did not experience ²  decay.

Kisah Para Rasul 20:33

20:33 I have desired ³  no one’s silver or gold or clothing.

[13:37]  ¹ sn The one whom God raised up refers to Jesus.

[13:37]  ² tn Grk “see,” but the literal translation of the phrase “did not see decay” could be misunderstood to mean simply “did not look at decay,” while here “did not see decay” is really figurative for “did not experience decay.”

[20:33]  ³ tn Traditionally, “coveted.” BDAG 371 s.v. ἐπιθυμέω 1 has “to have a strong desire to do or secure someth., desire, long for w. gen. of the thing desired…silver, gold, clothing Ac 20:33.” The traditional term “covet” is not in common usage and difficult for many modern English readers to understand. The statement affirms Paul’s integrity. He was not doing this for personal financial gain.
