Footnotes
- 90 Grk “for the thongs” (of which the lash was made). Although often translated as a dative of means (“with thongs”), referring to thongs used to tie the victim to the whipping post, ἱμάς states that it “is better taken as a of purpose for the thongs, in which case οἱ ἱμάντες = whips (Posidonius: 87 fgm. 5 Jac.; POxy. 1186, 2 τὴν διὰ τῶν ἱμάντων αἰκείαν.—Antiphanes 74, 8, Demosth. 19, 197 and Artem. 1, 70 use the sing. in this way).”
- 91 See the note on the word centurion in .
- 92 The word “citizen” is supplied here for emphasis and clarity.
- 93 Or “a Roman citizen and uncondemned.” ἀκατάκριτος has “uncondemned, without due process” for this usage. The fact that Paul was a Roman citizen protected him from being tortured to extract information; such protections were guaranteed by the Porcian and Julian law codes. In addition, the fact Paul had not been tried exempted him from punishment.
