[15:15]  ¹ tn The vav with the pronoun before the verb calls special attention to the subject in contrast to the preceding subject.

[15:15]  ³ tn Heb “in a good old age.”

[13:36]  ⁴ tn The participle ὑπηρετήσας (Juphrethsa") is taken temporally.

[13:36]  ⁶ tn Or “forefathers”; Grk “was gathered to his fathers” (a Semitic idiom).
