Kisah Para Rasul 4:3

4:3 So ¹  they seized ²  them and put them in jail ³  until the next day (for it was already evening).

Kisah Para Rasul 11:9

11:9 But the voice replied a second time from heaven, ‘What God has made clean, you must not consider ⁴  ritually unclean!’

Kisah Para Rasul 16:35

16:35 At daybreak ⁵  the magistrates ⁶  sent their police officers, ⁷  saying, “Release those men.”

[4:3]  ¹ tn Grk “And” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the logical sequence of events.

[4:3]  ² tn Or “they arrested”; Grk “they laid hands on.”

[4:3]  ³ tn Or “prison,” “custody.”

[11:9]  ⁴ tn Or “declare.” The wording matches Acts 10:15.

[16:35]  ⁵ tn The translation “day is breaking” for ἡμέρα γίνεται (Jhmera ginetai) in this verse is given by BDAG 436 s.v. ἡμέρα 1.a.

[16:35]  ⁶ tn On the term translated “magistrates,” see BDAG 947-48 s.v. στρατηγός 1. These city leaders were properly called duoviri, but were popularly known as praetors (στρατηγοί, strathgoi). They were the chief officials of Philippi. The text leaves the impression that they came to the decision to release Paul and Silas independently. God was at work everywhere.

[16:35]  ⁷ tn On the term ῥαβδοῦχος (rJabdouco") see BDAG 902 s.v. The term was used of the Roman lictor and roughly corresponds to contemporary English “constable, policeman.”
