Acts 18:17

18:17 So they all seized Sosthenes, the president of the synagogue, and began to beat him in front of the judgment seat. Yet none of these things were of any concern to Gallio.


tn That is, “the official in charge of the synagogue”; ἀρχισυνάγωγος (arcisunagwgo") refers to the “leader/president of a synagogue” (so BDAG 139 s.v. and L&N 53.93).

tn The imperfect verb ἔτυπτον (etupton) has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.

sn See the note on the term judgment seat in 18:12.

tn L&N 25.223 has “‘none of these things were of any concern to Gallio’ Ac 18:17.”
