and like a lamb before its shearer is silent,

so he did ⁵  not open his mouth.

Kisah Para Rasul 20:1

Kisah Para Rasul 20:7

Kisah Para Rasul 22:22

The Roman Commander Questions Paul

22:22 The crowd ¹⁴  was listening to him until he said this. ¹⁵  Then ¹⁶  they raised their voices and shouted, ¹⁷  “Away with this man ¹⁸  from the earth! For he should not be allowed to live!” ¹⁹ 

[2:29]  ¹ tn Since this represents a continuation of the address beginning in v.14 and continued in v. 22, “brothers” has been used here rather than a generic expression like “brothers and sisters.”

[2:29]  ² sn Peter’s certainty is based on well-known facts.

[2:29]  ³ tn Or “about our noted ancestor,” “about the patriarch.”

[8:32]  ⁴ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the man) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[8:32]  ⁵ tn Grk “does.” The present tense here was translated as a past tense to maintain consistency with the first line of the quotation (“he was led like a sheep to slaughter”), which has an aorist passive verb normally translated as a past tense in English.

[20:1]  ⁶ tn Or “exhorting.”

[20:1]  ⁷ tn Or “and taking leave of them.”

[20:1]  ⁸ sn Macedonia was the Roman province of Macedonia in Greece.

[20:7]  ⁹ sn On the first day. This is the first mention of a Sunday gathering (1 Cor 16:2).

[20:7]  ¹⁰ tn Or “assembled.”

[20:7]  ¹¹ tn The verb διαλέγομαι (dialegomai) is frequently used of Paul addressing Jews in the synagogue. As G. Schrenk (TDNT 2:94-95) points out, “What is at issue is the address which any qualified member of a synagogue might give.” Other examples of this may be found in the NT in Matt 4:23 and Mark 1:21. In the context of a Christian gathering, it is preferable to translate διελέγετο (dielegeto) simply as “speak” here. The imperfect verb διελέγετο has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.

[20:7]  ¹² tn BDAG 628 s.v. μέλλω 1.c.γ has “denoting an intended action: intend, propose, have in mind…Ac 17:31; 20:3, 7, 13ab; 23:15; 26:2; 27:30.”

[20:7]  ¹³ tn Or “prolonged.”

[22:22]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “They were listening”; the referent (the crowd) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:22]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “until this word.”

[22:22]  sn Until he said this. Note it is the mention of Paul’s mission to the Gentiles with its implication of ethnic openness that is so disturbing to the audience.

[22:22]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “And.” To indicate the logical sequence, καί (kai) has been translated as “then” here.

[22:22]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “and said.”

[22:22]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “this one.”

[22:22]  ¹⁹ tn BDAG 491 s.v. καθήκω has “to be appropriate, come/reach to, be proper/fitting…Usu. impers. καθήκει it comes (to someone)…foll. by acc. and inf….οὐ καθῆκεν αὐτὸν ζῆν he should not be allowed to live Ac 22:22.”
