Footnotes
- 12 These words are repeated from v. 4 (“all the Jews know”). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, it was necessary to begin a new sentence at the beginning of v. 5 in the translation, but for this to make sense, the main verb ἵσασι (hisasi) has to be repeated to connect with the ὅτι (hoti) clause (indirect discourse) in v. 5.
- 13 Grk “having known me from time past.” The participle προγινώσκοντες (proginōskontes) has been translated as a causal adverbial participle.
- 14 προγινώσκω 2 has “Know from time past … προγινώσκοντές με ἄνωθεν Ac 26:5.” L&N 28.6 states, “ ‘they have already known me beforehand, if they are willing to testify’ Ac 26:5.”
- 15 That is, strictest religious party. “Party” alone is used in the translation because “the strictest religious party of our religion” would be redundant.
- 16 See the note on Pharisee in .
