Footnotes

  1. 89 Grk “they spoke to one another saying.” The participle λέγοντες (legontes) is redundant in English and has not been translated.
  2. 90 ἄξιος 1.b has “θανάτου ἢ δεσμῶν ἄ. nothing deserving death or imprisonment 23:29; 26:31.” Not doing anything deserving death … Here is yet another declaration of Paul’s innocence, but still no release. The portrayal shows how unjust Paul’s confinement was.
