¹ tn Grk “they”; the referents (Paul and Barnabas) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Or “were leaving.” The participle ἐξιόντων (exiontwn) is taken temporally.

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

⁴ tn Or “begging,” “inviting.”

⁵ tn Or “matters.”

⁶ tn BDAG 231 s.v. διακρίνω 1.b lists this passage under the meaning “to conclude that there is a difference, make a distinction, differentiate.”

⁷ tn Or “purifying.”

¹¹ tn Grk “was going to bring him out,” but the upcoming trial is implied. See Acts 12:4.

¹² tn Grk “two chains, and.” Logically it makes better sense to translate this as a temporal clause, although technically it is a coordinate clause in Greek.

¹³ tn Or “were guarding.”
