28:9 After this had happened, many of the people on the island who were sick ⁵²  also came and were healed. ⁵³ 

[2:15]  ¹ tn Grk “These men are not drunk, as you suppose.”

[2:15]  ² tn Grk “only the third hour.”

[2:42]  ³ sn Fellowship refers here to close association involving mutual involvement and relationships.

[2:42]  ⁴ tn Grk “prayers.” This word was translated as a collective singular in keeping with English style.

[2:43]  ⁵ tn Or “Fear.”

[2:43]  ⁶ tn Grk “on every soul” (here “soul” is an idiom for the whole person).

[2:43]  ⁷ tn In this context the miraculous nature of these signs is implied. Cf. BDAG 920 s.v. σημεῖον 2.a.

[4:28]  ⁸ tn Grk “hand,” here a metaphor for God’s strength or power or authority.

[4:28]  ⁹ tn Or “purpose,” “will.”

[4:28]  ¹⁰ tn Or “had predestined.” Since the term “predestine” is something of a technical theological term, not in wide usage in contemporary English, the translation “decide beforehand” was used instead (see L&N 30.84). God’s direction remains as the major theme.

[5:7]  ¹¹ tn Grk “It happened that after an interval of about three hours.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[5:7]  ¹² tn Grk “came in, not knowing.” The participle has been translated with concessive or adversative force: “although she did not know.” In English, the adversative conjunction (“but”) conveys this nuance more smoothly.

[6:8]  ¹³ tn The miraculous nature of these signs is implied in the context. Here the work of miracles extends beyond the Twelve for the first time.

[7:22]  ¹⁴ tn Or “instructed.”

[7:22]  ¹⁵ tn Or “was able” (BDAG 264 s.v. δυνατός 1.b.α).

[7:24]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “And when.” 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.

[7:24]  ¹⁷ tn “Hurt unfairly” conveys a better sense of the seriousness of the offense against the Israelite than “treated unfairly,” which can sometimes refer to slight offenses, or “wronged,” which can refer to offenses that do not involve personal violence, as this one probably did.

[7:24]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Moses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:24]  ¹⁹ tn Or “he defended,” “he retaliated” (BDAG 55 s.v. ἀμύνομαι).

[8:24]  ²⁰ tn Grk “Simon answered and said.”

[8:24]  sn Given that Simon does not follow Peter’s call for repentance, many interpreters read this reply as flippant rather than sincere. But the exact nature of Simon’s reply is not entirely clear.

[8:24]  ²¹ tn Grk “may come upon.”

[10:19]  ²² tn The translation “think seriously about” for διενθυμέομαι (dienqumeomai) is given in L&N 30.2. Peter was “pondering” the vision (BDAG 244 s.v.).

[11:30]  ²³ tn Grk “Judea, which they did.” The relative pronoun was omitted and a new sentence was begun in the translation at this point to improve the English style, due to the length of the sentence in Greek.

[11:30]  ²⁴ tn The words “their financial aid” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Direct objects in Greek were often omitted when clear from the context, but must be supplied for the modern English reader.

[12:5]  ²⁵ tn Or “constantly.” This term also appears in Luke 22:14 and Acts 26:7.

[12:5]  ²⁶ tn Grk “but earnest prayer was being made by the church to God for him.” The order of the clauses has been rearranged to follow English style, and the somewhat awkward passive “prayer was being made” has been changed to the simpler active verb “were praying.” Luke portrays what follows as an answer to prayer.

[13:35]  ²⁷ tn Grk “Therefore he also says in another”; the word “psalm” is not in the Greek text but is implied.

[13:35]  ²⁸ tn The Greek word translated “Holy One” here (ὅσιόν, {osion) is related to the use of ὅσια (Josia) in v. 34. The link is a wordplay. The Holy One, who does not die, brings the faithful holy blessings of promise to the people.

[13:35]  ²⁹ tn Grk “to see,” but the literal translation of the phrase “to see decay” could be misunderstood to mean simply “to look at decay,” while here “see decay” is really figurative for “experience decay.”

[13:35]  ³⁰ sn A quotation from Ps 16:10.

[16:20]  ³¹ tn Grk “And when.” 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.

[16:20]  ³² tn Grk “having brought them.” The participle ἐπιλαβόμενοι (epilabomenoi) has been taken temporally. It is also possible in English to translate this participle as a finite verb: “they brought them before the magistrates and said.”

[16:20]  ³³ tn BDAG 309 s.v. ἐκταράσσω has “agitate, cause trouble to, throw into confusion” for the meaning of this verb.

[16:20]  ³⁴ tn Grk “being Jews, and they are proclaiming.” The participle ὑπάρχοντες (Juparconte") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[17:30]  ³⁵ tn Or “has deliberately paid no attention to.”

[17:30]  ³⁶ tn Or “times when people did not know.”

[17:30]  ³⁷ tn Here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") has been translated as a generic noun (“people”).

[17:30]  ³⁸ 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.

[19:39]  ³⁹ tn Or “anything more than this.”

[19:39]  ⁴⁰ tn Or “resolved.”

[19:39]  ⁴¹ tn Or “in a legal meeting of the citizens.” L&N 30.81 has “ἐν τῇ ἐννόμῳ ἐκκλησίᾳ ἐπιλυθήσεται ‘it will have to be settled in a legal meeting of the citizens’ Ac 19:39.” This meeting took place three times a year.

[20:2]  ⁴² tn BDAG 633 s.v. μέρος 1.b.γ gives the meanings “the parts (of a geographical area), region, district,” but the use of “district” in this context probably implies too much specificity.

[20:2]  ⁴³ tn Grk “and encouraging them with many words.” The participle παρακαλέσας (parakalesa", “encouraging”) has been translated by the phrase “spoken…words of encouragement” because the formal equivalent is awkward in contemporary English.

[20:2]  ⁴⁴ tn Grk “[to] them”; the referent (the believers there) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[20:2]  ⁴⁵ tn In popular usage the term translated “Greece” here could also refer to the Roman province officially known as Achaia (BDAG 318 s.v. ῾Ελλάς).

[21:12]  ⁴⁶ tn Or “the people there.”

[22:18]  ⁴⁷ tn Or “Jesus”; Grk “him.” The referent (the Lord, cf. v. 19) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[26:32]  ⁴⁸ sn See the note on King Agrippa in 25:13.

[26:32]  ⁴⁹ sn See the note on Porcius Festus in 24:27.

[26:32]  ⁵⁰ tn Or “set free.”

[26:32]  ⁵¹ tn Or “to the emperor” (“Caesar” is a title for the Roman emperor).

[26:32]  sn If he had not appealed to Caesar. Ultimately Agrippa and Festus blamed what Paul himself had done in appealing to Caesar for his own continued custody. In terms of Luke’s narrative, this still appears unjust and a denial of responsibility.

[28:9]  ⁵² tn BDAG 142 s.v. ἀσθένεια 1 states, “ἔχειν ἀ. be ill Ac 28:9.”

[28:9]  ⁵³ sn Many…also came and were healed. Again, here is irony. Paul, though imprisoned, “frees” others of their diseases.
