Footnotes

  1. 23 Grk “all of them”; the referent (the people) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 24 Or “This man is what is called the Great Power of God.” The translation “what is called the Great Power of God” is given by δύναμις 5, but the repetition of the article before καλουμένη μεγάλη (kaloumenē megalē) suggests the translation “the power of God that is called ‘Great.’ ”
