Acts 11:11-12

11:11 At that very moment, three men sent to me from Caesarea approached the house where we were staying. 11:12 The Spirit told me to accompany them without hesitation. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.

tn Grk “And behold.”

sn Caesarea was a city on the coast of Palestine south of Mount Carmel (not Caesarea Philippi). See the note on Caesarea in Acts 10:1.

tn See BDAG 418 s.v. ἐφίστημι 1 for this meaning for ἐπέστησαν (epesthsan) here.

tn The word “staying” is not in the Greek text but is implied.

sn Six witnesses is three times more than what would normally be required. They could confirm the events were not misrepresented by Peter.
