Footnotes

  1. 1 Grk “hour.”
  2. 2 Going up to the temple at the time for prayer. The earliest Christians, being of Jewish roots, were still participating in the institutions of Judaism at this point. Their faith in Christ did not make them non-Jewish in their practices.
  3. 3 Grk “at the ninth hour.” This is calculated from sunrise (Josephus, 14.4.3 [14.65]; Dan 9:21).
