22:20And when the blood of your witness67 Stephen was shed,68 I myself was standing nearby, approving,69 and guarding the cloaks70 of those who were killing him.’71
Footnotes
- 67 Now Paul referred to Stephen as your witness, and he himself had also become a witness. The reversal was now complete; the opponent had now become a proponent.
- 68 When the blood of your witness Stephen was shed means “when your witness Stephen was murdered.”
- 69 Grk “and approving.” This καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
- 70 Or “outer garments.” The cloaks. The outer garment, or cloak, was taken off and laid aside to leave the arms free (in this case for throwing stones).
- 71 Or “who were putting him to death.” For the translation of ἀναιρούντων (anairountōn) as “putting to death” see ἀναιρέω 2.
