NET Notes

¹tn Grk “And when.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

²tn Or “delivered.”

³sn Here the hand of Herod is a metaphor for Herod’s power or control.

⁴sn King Herod was Herod Agrippa I, the grandson of Herod I (Herod the Great).

⁵sn Luke characterizes the opposition here as the Jewish people, including their leadership (see 12:3).
