Kisah Para Rasul 21:14

21:14 Because he could not be persuaded, ³  we said no more except, ⁴  “The Lord’s will be done.” ⁵ 

[15:40]  ¹ tn Or “committed.” BDAG 762 s.v. παραδίδωμι 2 gives “be commended by someone to the grace of the Lord” as the meaning for this phrase, although “give over” and “commit” are listed as alternatives for this category.

[15:40]  ² tn Grk “by the brothers.” Here it it is highly probable that the entire congregation is in view, not just men, so the translation “brothers and sisters” has been used for the plural ἀδελφῶν (adelfwn),.

[21:14]  ³ tn The participle πειθομένου (peiqomenou) in this genitive absolute construction has been translated as a causal adverbial participle.

[21:14]  ⁴ tn Grk “we became silent, saying.”

[21:14]  ⁵ sn “The Lord’s will be done.” Since no one knew exactly what would happen, the matter was left in the Lord’s hands.
