20:19 serving the Lord with all humility ¹  and with tears, and with the trials that happened to me because of the plots ²  of the Jews.

Kisah Para Rasul 9:23-24

Saul’s Escape from Damascus

9:23 Now after some days had passed, the Jews plotted ³  together to kill him, 9:24 but Saul learned of their plot against him. ⁴  They were also watching ⁵  the city gates ⁶  day and night so that they could kill him.

[20:19]  ¹ sn On humility see 2 Cor 10:1; 11:7; 1 Thess 2:6; Col 3:12; Eph 4:2; Phil 2:3-11.

[20:19]  ² sn These plots are mentioned in Acts 9:24; 20:13.

[9:23]  ³ sn Fitting the pattern emphasized earlier with Stephen and his speech in Acts 7, some Jews plotted to kill God’s messenger (cf. Luke 11:53-54).

[9:24]  ⁴ tn The words “against him” are implied, as suggested by L&N 30.71.

[9:24]  ⁵ tn Or “guarding.” This is a negative term in Luke-Acts (Luke 6:7; 14:1; 20:20).

[9:24]  ⁶ tn The word πύλη (pulh) may refer to a house door or gate, or to the large gates used in a palace, temple, or city wall. Here the context clearly indicates a reference to the latter, so the translation “city gates” is used.
