Acts 4:3

4:3 So ¹  they seized ²  them and put them in jail ³  until the next day (for it was already evening).

Acts 5:18

5:18 They ⁴  laid hands on ⁵  the apostles and put them in a public jail.

Acts 26:21

26:21 For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple courts ⁶  and were trying to kill me.

Luke 21:12

21:12 But before all this, ⁷  they will seize ⁸  you and persecute you, handing you over to the synagogues ⁹  and prisons. You ¹⁰  will be brought before kings and governors because of my name.

¹ tn Grk “And” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the logical sequence of events.

² tn Or “they arrested”; Grk “they laid hands on.”

³ tn Or “prison,” “custody.”

⁴ tn Grk “jealousy, and they.” In the Greek text this is a continuation of the previous sentence, but a new sentence has been started here in the translation for stylistic reasons.

⁵ tn Or “they arrested.”

⁶ tn Grk “in the temple.” This is actually a reference to the courts surrounding the temple proper, and has been translated accordingly.

⁷ sn But before all this. Another note of timing is present, this one especially important in understanding the sequence in the discourse. Before the things noted in vv. 8-11 are the events of vv. 12-19.

⁸ tn Grk “will lay their hands on you.”

⁹ sn Some of the persecution is of Jewish origin (the synagogues). Some fulfillment of this can be seen in Acts. See the note on synagogues in 4:15.

¹⁰ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
