Kisah Para Rasul 26:7
Konteks26:7 a promise 25 that our twelve tribes hope to attain as they earnestly serve God 26 night and day. Concerning this hope the Jews are accusing me, 27 Your Majesty! 28
[7:4] 1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the introduction of new but related material.
[7:4] 2 tn Grk “who were sealed.”
[7:4] 3 tn Normally, “every,” but since 144,000 is the total number, “all” is clearer here.
[7:4] 4 tn Grk “the sons of Israel,” normally an idiom for the Israelites as an ethnic entity (L&N 11.58). However, many scholars understand the expression in this context to refer to Christians rather than ethnic Israelites.
[2:2] 5 tn Heb “a man by his own standard.”
[2:2] 6 tn The imperfect tense is to be taken in the nuance of instruction.
[2:2] 7 tn Heb “of/for the house of their fathers.”
[2:2] 8 tn The Hebrew expression מִנֶּגֶד (minneged) means “from before” or “opposite; facing” and “at some distance” or “away from the front of” (see BDB 617 s.v. נֶגֶד 2.c.a; DCH 5:603-4 s.v. 3.b).
[2:2] 9 sn The Israelites were camping as a military camp, each tribe with the standards and emblems of the family. The standard was the symbol fastened to the end of a pole and carried to battle. It served to rally the tribe to the battle. The Bible nowhere describes these, although the serpent emblem of Numbers 21:8-9 may give a clue. But they probably did not have shapes of animals in view of the prohibition in the Decalogue. The standards may have been smaller for the families than the ones for the tribes. See further K. A. Kitchen, “Some Egyptian Background to the Old Testament,” TynBul 5 (1960): 11; and T. W. Mann, Divine Presence and Guidance in Israelite Tradition, 169-73.
[2:3] 10 tn The sentence begins with a vav (ו) on a word that is not a finite verb, indicating a new section begins here. The verbal form is a participle with the article used substantivally, with the meaning “and/now those camping.” Many English versions employ a finite verb; cf. KJV “on the east side…shall they of the standard of the camp of Judah pitch.”
[2:3] 11 tc The two synonyms might seem to be tautological, but this is fairly common and therefore acceptable in Hebrew prose (cf. Exod 26:18; 38:13; etc.).
[2:3] 12 tn The sentence actually has “[those camping…are] the standard of the camp of Judah according to their divisions.”
[2:4] 14 tc The expression “and his divisions and those numbered of them” is somewhat tautological. The words are synonyms used for statistical purposes, and so neither should be simply deleted.
[2:5] 15 tn Heb “by him” [i.e., Judah].
[2:7] 16 tn This part has been supplied; the text simply has “the tribe of Zebulun.”
[2:9] 17 tn The verb is נָסָע (nasa’): “to journey, travel, set out,” and here, “to move camp.” Judah will go first, or, literally, at the head of the nation, when they begin to travel.
[2:10] 18 tn Here and throughout the line is literally “[under] the standard of the camp of Reuben…according to their divisions.”
[2:14] 19 tn The Hebrew text simply has “and the tribe of Gad.”
[2:14] 20 tc The Leningrad codex, upon which BHS is based, has “Reuel” here. In reading “Deuel” the translation presented above follows many medieval Hebrew manuscripts, Smr, and the Latin Vulgate. Cf. Num 1:14.
[2:17] 21 tn The Hebrew expression is עַל־יָדוֹ (’al-yado, “upon his hand”). This clearly refers to a specifically designated place for each man.
[2:22] 22 tn Here too the Hebrew text simply has “and the tribe of Benjamin.”
[2:29] 23 tn The Hebrew text has “and the tribe of Naphtali.”
[2:32] 24 tn Heb “the house of their fathers.” So also in v. 34.
[26:7] 25 tn Grk “to which [promise] our twelve tribes…” The antecedent of the relative pronoun (the promise in v. 6) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[26:7] 26 tn Or “earnestly worship.” The object of this service, God, is omitted but implied: BDAG 587 s.v. λατρεύω states, “Without the dat. of the one to whom service is given: ἐν ἐκτενείᾳ νύκτα κ. ἡμέραν λ. serve (God) earnestly night and day Ac 26:7.” Although clear from the context in Greek, “God” must be supplied as the recipient of the service for the modern English reader.
[26:7] 27 tn Grk “I am being accused by the Jews.” The passive construction was simplified by converting it to an active one in the translation.
