Kisah Para Rasul 9:43

9:43 So ¹  Peter ²  stayed many days in Joppa with a man named ³  Simon, a tanner. ⁴ 

Kisah Para Rasul 10:6

10:6 This man is staying as a guest with a man named Simon, a tanner, ⁵  whose house is by the sea.”

Kisah Para Rasul 10:17

10:17 Now while Peter was puzzling over ⁶  what the vision he had seen could signify, the men sent by Cornelius had learned where Simon’s house was ⁷  and approached ⁸  the gate.

[9:43]  ¹ tn Grk “So it happened that.” 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.

[9:43]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Peter) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:43]  ³ tn Grk “with a certain Simon.”

[9:43]  ⁴ tn Or “with a certain Simon Berseus.” Although most modern English translations treat βυρσεῖ (bursei) as Simon’s profession (“Simon the tanner”), it is possible that the word is actually Simon’s surname (“Simon Berseus” or “Simon Tanner”). BDAG 185 s.v. βυρσεύς regards it as a surname. See also MM 118.

[10:6]  ⁵ tn Or “with a certain Simon Berseus.” Although most modern English translations treat βυρσεῖ (bursei) as Simon’s profession (“Simon the tanner”), it is possible that the word is actually Simon’s surname (“Simon Berseus” or “Simon Tanner”). BDAG 185 s.v. βυρσεύς regards it as a surname. See also MM 118.

[10:17]  ⁶ tn Or “was greatly confused over.” The term means to be perplexed or at a loss (BDAG 235 s.v. διαπορέω).

[10:17]  ⁷ tn Grk “having learned.” The participle διερωτήσαντες (dierwthsante") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[10:17]  ⁸ tn BDAG 418 s.v. ἐφίστημι 1 has “ἐπί τι approach or stand by someth. (Sir 41:24) Ac 10:17.”

[10:17]  sn As Peter puzzled over the meaning of the vision, the messengers from Cornelius approached the gate. God’s direction here had a sense of explanatory timing.
