Kisah Para Rasul 17:16

Paul at Athens

17:16 While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, ¹⁶  his spirit was greatly upset ¹⁷  because he saw ¹⁸  the city was full of idols.

Kisah Para Rasul 17:29-31

17:29 So since we are God’s offspring, we should not think the deity ¹⁹  is like gold or silver or stone, an image ²⁰  made by human ²¹  skill ²²  and imagination. ²³  17:30 Therefore, although God has overlooked ²⁴  such times of ignorance, ²⁵  he now commands all people ²⁶  everywhere to repent, ²⁷  17:31 because he has set ²⁸  a day on which he is going to judge the world ²⁹  in righteousness, by a man whom he designated, ³⁰  having provided proof to everyone by raising ³¹  him from the dead.”

[11:5]  ¹ tn Heb “walked after.”

[11:5]  ² tn Heb “Milcom, the detestable thing of the Ammonites.”

[11:7]  ⁵ sn A high place. The “high places” were places of worship that were naturally or artificially elevated (see 1 Kgs 3:2).

[11:7]  ⁶ tn Heb “Chemosh, the detestable thing of Moab.”

[11:7]  ⁷ tc The MT reads “Molech,” but Milcom must be intended (see vv. 5, 33).

[11:33]  ⁸ tn The words “I am taking the kingdom from him” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[11:33]  ⁹ tc This is the reading of the MT; the LXX, Syriac, and Vulgate read “he has.”

[11:33]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “walked in my ways.”

[11:33]  ¹¹ tn Heb “by doing what is right in my eyes, my rules and my regulations, like David his father.”

[16:31]  ¹² tn Heb “and he went and served Baal and bowed down to him.”

[16:31]  sn The Canaanites worshiped Baal as a storm and fertility god.

[16:2]  ¹³ tn The Hebrew text has “because” at the beginning of the sentence. In the Hebrew text vv. 2-3 are one sentence comprised of a causal clause giving the reason for divine punishment (v. 2) and the main clause announcing the punishment (v. 3). The translation divides this sentence for stylistic reasons.

[16:2]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “walked in the way of Jeroboam.”

[16:2]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “angering me by their sins.”

[17:16]  ¹⁶ map For location see JP1 C2; JP2 C2; JP3 C2; JP4 C2.

[17:16]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “greatly upset within him,” but the words “within him” were not included in the translation because they are redundant in English. See L&N 88.189. The term could also be rendered “infuriated.”

[17:16]  sn His spirit was greatly upset. See Rom 1:18-32 for Paul’s feelings about idolatry. Yet he addressed both Jews and Gentiles with tact and reserve.

[17:16]  ¹⁸ tn Or “when he saw.” The participle θεωροῦντος (qewrounto") has been translated as a causal adverbial participle; it could also be translated as temporal.

[17:29]  ¹⁹ tn Or “the divine being.” BDAG 446 s.v. θεῖος 1.b has “divine being, divinity” here.

[17:29]  ²⁰ tn Or “a likeness.” Again idolatry is directly attacked as an affront to God and a devaluation of him.

[17:29]  ²¹ tn Grk “by the skill and imagination of man,” but ἀνθρώπου (anqrwpou) has been translated as an attributive genitive.

[17:29]  ²² tn Or “craftsmanship” (cf. BDAG 1001 s.v. τέχνη).

[17:29]  ²³ tn Or “thought.” BDAG 336 s.v. ἐνθύμησις has “thought, reflection, idea” as the category of meaning here, but in terms of creativity (as in the context) the imaginative faculty is in view.

[17:30]  ²⁴ tn Or “has deliberately paid no attention to.”

[17:30]  ²⁵ tn Or “times when people did not know.”

[17:30]  ²⁶ tn Here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") has been translated as a generic noun (“people”).

[17:30]  ²⁷ sn He now commands all people everywhere to repent. God was now asking all mankind to turn to him. No nation or race was excluded.

[17:31]  ²⁸ tn Or “fixed.”

[17:31]  ²⁹ sn The world refers to the whole inhabited earth.

[17:31]  ³⁰ tn Or “appointed.” BDAG 723 s.v. ὁρίζω 2.b has “of persons appoint, designate, declare: God judges the world ἐν ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὥρισεν through a man whom he has appointed Ac 17:31.”

[17:31]  sn A man whom he designated. Jesus is put in the position of eschatological judge. As judge of the living and the dead, he possesses divine authority (Acts 10:42).

[17:31]  ³¹ tn The participle ἀναστήσας (anasthsa") indicates means here.

[23:13]  ³² tn L&N 30.73 defines συνωμοσία (sunwmosia) as “a plan for taking secret action someone or some institution, with the implication of an oath binding the conspirators – ‘conspiracy, plot.’ …‘there were more than forty of them who formed this conspiracy’ Ac 23:13.”
