Footnotes

  1. 14 Or “laid.”
  2. 15 The coming of the Holy Spirit here is another case where the Spirit comes and prophesy results in Acts (see Acts 2). Paul’s action parallels that of Peter (Acts 8) and not just with Gentiles.
  3. 16 The imperfect verb ἐλάλουν (elaloun) has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.
  4. 17 The imperfect verb ἐπροφήτευον (eprophēteuon) has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.
