Acts 11:18

tn Grk “these things.”

tn Or “became silent,” but this would create an apparent contradiction with the subsequent action of praising God. The point, in context, is that they ceased objecting to what Peter had done.

tn Or “glorified.”

sn In the Greek text the phrase even to the Gentiles is in an emphatic position.
