22:3 Early in the morning Abraham got up and saddled his donkey. ⁹  He took two of his young servants with him, along with his son Isaac. When he had cut the wood for the burnt offering, he started out ¹⁰  for the place God had spoken to him about.

The Apostles Perform Miraculous Signs and Wonders

5:12 Now many miraculous signs ¹⁸  and wonders came about among the people through the hands of the apostles. By ¹⁹  common consent ²⁰  they were all meeting together in Solomon’s Portico. ²¹  5:13 None of the rest dared to join them, ²²  but the people held them in high honor. ²³  5:14 More and more believers in the Lord were added to their number, ²⁴  crowds of both men and women.

Yohanes 2:5-8

2:5 His mother told the servants, “Whatever he tells you, do it.” ²⁵ 

2:6 Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washing, ²⁶  each holding twenty or thirty gallons. ²⁷  2:7 Jesus told the servants, ²⁸  “Fill the water jars with water.” So they filled them up to the very top. 2:8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the head steward,” ²⁹  and they did.

Yohanes 15:14

15:14 You are my friends ³⁰  if you do what I command you.

Ibrani 11:7-8

11:7 By faith Noah, when he was warned about things not yet seen, with reverent regard ³¹  constructed an ark for the deliverance of his family. Through faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.

11:8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place he would later receive as an inheritance, and he went out without understanding where he was going.

Ibrani 11:24-31

11:24 By faith, when he grew up, Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 11:25 choosing rather to be ill-treated with the people of God than to enjoy sin’s fleeting pleasure. 11:26 He regarded abuse suffered for Christ ³²  to be greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for his eyes were fixed on ³³  the reward. 11:27 By faith he left Egypt without fearing the king’s anger, for he persevered as though he could see the one who is invisible. 11:28 By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, ³⁴  so that the one who destroyed the firstborn would not touch them. 11:29 By faith they crossed the Red Sea as if on dry ground, but when the Egyptians tried it, they were swallowed up. 11:30 By faith the walls of Jericho ³⁵  fell after the people marched around them ³⁶  for seven days. 11:31 By faith Rahab the prostitute escaped the destruction of ³⁷  the disobedient, because she welcomed the spies in peace.

Yakobus 2:21-26

2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 2:22 You see that his faith was working together with his works and his faith was perfected by works. 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Now Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness,” ³⁸  and he was called God’s friend. ³⁹  2:24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 2:25 And similarly, was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she welcomed the messengers and sent them out by another way? 2:26 For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

[6:22]  ¹ tn Heb “according to all.”

[6:22]  ² tn The last clause seems redundant: “and thus (כֵּן, ken) he did.” It underscores the obedience of Noah to all that God had said.

[7:5]  ³ tn Heb “according to all.”

[22:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:2]  ⁵ sn Take your son…Isaac. The instructions are very clear, but the details are deliberate. With every additional description the commandment becomes more challenging.

[22:2]  ⁶ sn There has been much debate over the location of Moriah; 2 Chr 3:1 suggests it may be the site where the temple was later built in Jerusalem.

[22:2]  ⁷ sn A whole burnt offering signified the complete surrender of the worshiper and complete acceptance by God. The demand for a human sacrifice was certainly radical and may have seemed to Abraham out of character for God. Abraham would have to obey without fully understanding what God was about.

[22:2]  ⁸ tn Heb “which I will say to.”

[22:3]  ⁹ tn Heb “Abraham rose up early in the morning and saddled his donkey.”

[22:3]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “he arose and he went.”

[40:32]  ¹¹ tn The construction is the infinitive construct with the temporal preposition and the suffixed subjective genitive. This temporal clause indicates that the verb in the preceding verse was frequentative.

[40:32]  ¹² tn This is another infinitive construct in a temporal clause.

[40:32]  ¹³ tn In this explanatory verse the verb is a customary imperfect.

[40:2]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “you will raise,” an imperfect of instruction.

[5:11]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “And great.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[5:11]  ¹⁶ tn Or “fear came on,” “fear seized”; Grk “fear happened to.”

[5:11]  ¹⁷ sn This is the first occurrence of the term church (ἐκκλησία, ekklhsia) in Acts. It refers to an assembly of people.

[5:12]  ¹⁸ tn The miraculous nature of these signs is implied in the context.

[5:12]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “And by.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[5:12]  ²⁰ tn Or “With one mind.”

[5:12]  ²¹ tn Or “colonnade”; Grk “stoa.”

[5:12]  sn Solomon’s Portico was a covered walkway formed by rows of columns supporting a roof and open on the inner side facing the center of the temple complex. Located beside the Court of the Gentiles, it was a very public area.

[5:13]  ²² tn Or “to associate with them.” The group was beginning to have a controversial separate identity. People were cautious about joining them. The next verse suggests that the phrase “none of the rest” in this verse is rhetorical hyperbole.

[5:13]  ²³ tn Or “the people thought very highly of them.”

[5:14]  ²⁴ tn Or “More and more believers were added to the Lord.”

[2:5]  ²⁵ tn The pronoun “it” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied. Direct objects in Greek were often omitted when clear from the context.

[2:6]  ²⁶ tn Grk “for the purification of the Jews.”

[2:6]  ²⁷ tn Grk “holding two or three metretes” (about 75 to 115 liters). Each of the pots held 2 or 3 μετρηταί (metrhtai). A μετρητῆς (metrhths) was about 9 gallons (40 liters); thus each jar held 18-27 gallons (80-120 liters) and the total volume of liquid involved was 108-162 gallons (480-720 liters).

[2:6]  sn Significantly, these jars held water for Jewish ceremonial washing (purification rituals). The water of Jewish ritual purification has become the wine of the new messianic age. The wine may also be, after the fashion of Johannine double meanings, a reference to the wine of the Lord’s Supper. A number have suggested this, but there does not seem to be anything in the immediate context which compels this; it seems more related to how frequently a given interpreter sees references to the sacraments in John’s Gospel as a whole.

[2:7]  ²⁸ tn Grk “them” (it is clear from the context that the servants are addressed).

[2:8]  ²⁹ tn Or “the master of ceremonies.”

[15:14]  ³⁰ sn This verse really explains John 15:10 in another way. Those who keep Jesus’ commandments are called his friends, those friends for whom he lays down his life (v. 13). It is possible to understand this verse as referring to a smaller group within Christianity as a whole, perhaps only the apostles who were present when Jesus spoke these words. Some have supported this by comparing it to the small group of associates and advisers to the Roman Emperor who were called “Friends of the Emperor.” Others would see these words as addressed only to those Christians who as disciples were obedient to Jesus. In either case the result would be to create a sort of “inner circle” of Christians who are more privileged than mere “believers” or average Christians. In context, it seems clear that Jesus’ words must be addressed to all true Christians, not just some narrower category of believers, because Jesus’ sacrificial death, which is his act of love toward his friends (v. 13) applies to all Christians equally (cf. John 13:1).

[11:7]  ³¹ tn Cf. BDAG 407 s.v. εὐλαβέομαι 2, “out of reverent regard (for God’s command).”

[11:26]  ³² tn Grk “the abuse [or ‘reproach’] of Christ.”

[11:26]  ³³ tn Grk “he was looking away to.”

[11:28]  ³⁴ tn Grk “the pouring out of the blood.”

[11:28]  sn The sprinkling of the blood refers here to the application of the blood to the doorways of the Israelite houses (cf. Exod 12:7, 13).

[11:30]  ³⁶ tn Grk “after they had been encircled.”

[11:31]  ³⁷ tn Grk “did not perish together with.”

[2:23]  ³⁸ sn A quotation from Gen 15:6.

[2:23]  ³⁹ sn An allusion to 2 Chr 20:7; Isa 41:8; 51:2; Dan 3:35 (LXX), in which Abraham is called God’s “beloved.”
