Acts 2:13

2:13 But others jeered at the speakers, saying, “They are drunk on new wine!”

Acts 17:32

17:32 Now when they heard about the resurrection from the dead, some began to scoff, but others said, “We will hear you again about this.”


tn The words “the speakers” are not in the Greek text, but have been supplied for clarity. Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

tn Grk “They are full of new wine!”

tn The participle ἀκούσαντες (akousante") has been taken temporally.

tn L&N 33.408 has “some scoffed (at him) Ac 17:32” for ἐχλεύαζον (ecleuazon) here; the imperfect verb has been translated as an ingressive imperfect (“began to scoff”).
