Kisah Para Rasul 18:16

18:16 Then he had them forced away ⁴  from the judgment seat. ⁵ 

Kisah Para Rasul 21:30

21:30 The whole city was stirred up, ⁶  and the people rushed together. ⁷  They seized ⁸  Paul and dragged him out of the temple courts, ⁹  and immediately the doors were shut.

[7:58]  ¹ tn Grk “And when.” Because of the length of the Greek sentence and the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences, καί (kai) has not been translated here; a new sentence is begun instead.

[7:58]  ² sn They began to stone him. The irony of the scene is that the people do exactly what the speech complains about in v. 52.

[7:58]  ³ tn Or “outer garments.”

[7:58]  sn Laid their cloaks. The outer garment, or cloak, was taken off and laid aside to leave the arms free (in this case for throwing stones).

[18:16]  ⁴ tn Grk “driven away,” but this could result in a misunderstanding in English (“driven” as in a cart or wagon?). “Forced away” conveys the idea; Gallio rejected their complaint. In contemporary English terminology the case was “thrown out of court.” The verb ἀπήλασεν (aphlasen) has been translated as a causative since Gallio probably did not perform this action in person, but ordered his aides or officers to remove the plaintiffs.

[18:16]  ⁵ sn See the note on the term judgment seat in 18:12.

[21:30]  ⁶ tn On this term see BDAG 545 s.v. κινέω 2.b.

[21:30]  ⁷ tn Or “the people formed a mob.” BDAG 967 s.v. συνδρομή has “formation of a mob by pers. running together, running together…ἐγένετο σ. τοῦ λαοῦ the people rushed together Ac 21:30.”

[21:30]  ⁸ tn Grk “and seizing.” The participle ἐπιλαβόμενοι (epilabomenoi) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was begun in the translation, and καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[21:30]  ⁹ tn Grk “out of the temple.” See the note on the word “temple” in v. 28.
