Acts 3:16

3:16 And on the basis of faith in Jesus’ ¹  name, ²  his very name has made this man – whom you see and know – strong. The ³  faith that is through Jesus ⁴  has given him this complete health in the presence ⁵  of you all.

Acts 17:31

17:31 because he has set ⁶  a day on which he is going to judge the world ⁷  in righteousness, by a man whom he designated, ⁸  having provided proof to everyone by raising ⁹  him from the dead.”

¹ tn Grk “in his name”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² sn Here is another example of appeal to the person by mentioning the name. See the note on the word name in 3:6.

³ tn Grk “see and know, and the faith.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation and καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated.

⁴ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁵ tn Or “in full view.”

⁶ tn Or “fixed.”

⁷ sn The world refers to the whole inhabited earth.

⁸ tn Or “appointed.” BDAG 723 s.v. ὁρίζω 2.b has “of persons appoint, designate, declare: God judges the world ἐν ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὥρισεν through a man whom he has appointed Ac 17:31.”

⁹ tn The participle ἀναστήσας (anasthsa") indicates means here.
