2 Chronicles 11:4

11:4 ‘The Lord says this: “Do not attack and make war with your brothers. Each of you go home, for I have caused this to happen.”’” ¹  They obeyed the Lord and called off the attack against Jeroboam. ² 

Acts 7:26

7:26 The next day Moses ³  saw two men ⁴  fighting, and tried to make peace between ⁵  them, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers; why are you hurting one another?’

Acts 13:26

13:26 Brothers, ⁶  descendants ⁷  of Abraham’s family, ⁸  and those Gentiles among you who fear God, ⁹  the message ¹⁰  of this salvation has been sent to us.

¹ tn Heb “for his thing is from me.”

² tn Heb “and they heard the words of the Lord and returned from going against Jeroboam.”

³ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Moses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁴ tn Grk “saw them”; the context makes clear that two individuals were involved (v. 27).

⁵ tn Or “tried to reconcile” (BDAG 964-65 s.v. συναλλάσσω).

⁶ tn Grk “Men brothers,” but this is both awkward and unnecessary in English.

⁷ tn Grk “sons”

⁸ tn Or “race.”

⁹ tn Grk “and those among you who fear God,” but this is practically a technical term for the category called God-fearers, Gentiles who worshiped the God of Israel and in many cases kept the Mosaic law, but did not take the final step of circumcision necessary to become a proselyte to Judaism. See further K. G. Kuhn, TDNT 6:732-34, 743-44. Note how Paul includes God-fearing Gentiles as recipients of this promise.

¹⁰ tn Grk “word.”
