Kisah Para Rasul 7:39

7:39 Our ¹  ancestors ²  were unwilling to obey ³  him, but pushed him aside ⁴  and turned back to Egypt in their hearts,

Kisah Para Rasul 10:35

10:35 but in every nation ⁵  the person who fears him ⁶  and does what is right ⁷  is welcomed before him.

[7:39]  ¹ tn Grk “whom our.” The continuation of the sentence as a relative clause is awkward in English, so a new sentence was started in the translation at this point.

[7:39]  ² tn Or “forefathers”; Grk “fathers.”

[7:39]  ³ sn To obey. Again the theme of the speech is noted. The nation disobeyed the way of God and opted for Egypt over the promised land.

[7:39]  ⁴ sn Pushed him aside. This is the second time Moses is “pushed aside” in Stephen’s account (see v. 27).

[10:35]  ⁵ sn See Luke 24:47.

[10:35]  ⁶ tn Or “shows reverence for him.”

[10:35]  ⁷ tn Grk “works righteousness”; the translation “does what is right” for this phrase in this verse is given by L&N 25.85.

[10:35]  sn Note how faith and response are linked here by the phrase and does what is right.
