Footnotes

  1. 22 Filled with the Holy Spirit. The narrator’s remark about the Holy Spirit indicates that Peter speaks as directed by God and for God. This fulfills Luke 12:11–12 (1 Pet 3:15).
  2. 23 Grk “Spirit, said to them.”
  3. 24 The Western and Byzantine texts, as well as one or two Alexandrian witnesses, read τοῦ Ἰσραήλ (tou Israēl, “of Israel”) after πρεσβύτεροι (presbuteroi, “elders”; so D E Ψ 33 1739 𝔐 it), while most of the better witnesses, chiefly Alexandrian (𝔓74 א A B 0165 1175 vg sa bo), lack this modifier. The longer reading was most likely added by scribes to give literary balance to the addressees in that “Rulers” already had an adjunct while “elders” was left absolute.
