NET Notes |
1 tn Grk “the Sanhedrin” (the Sanhedrin was the highest legal, legislative, and judicial body among the Jews). 2 tn Grk “the chiliarch” (an officer in command of a thousand soldiers). See note on the term “commanding officer” in v. 10. 3 tn Or “decide.” BDAG 227 s.v. διαγινώσκω has “ἀκριβέστερον τὰ περὶ αὐτοῦ to make a more thorough examination of his case Ac 23:15.” 4 tn Grk “determine the things about him.” 5 tn The expression “more thorough inquiry” reflects the comparative form of ἀκριβέστερον (akribesteron). 6 sn “We are ready to kill him.” Now those Jews involved in the conspiracy, along with the leaders as accomplices, are going to break one of the ten commandments. 7 tn The words “this place” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. |
