Matt 27:27; Mark 15:16; John 18:28, 33; 19:9; Acts 23:35). In either case a metonymy is involved, with the place (the praetorium) put for those (soldiers or government officials) who were connected with it or stationed in it.
[1:13] 3 tn Grk “it has become known by the whole imperial guard and all the rest.”
[1:13] 4 tn Grk “my bonds [are].”
[1:17] 5 tn Grk “thinking to cause trouble to my bonds.”
[3:13] 6 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:12.
