Acts 14:19

14:19 But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and after winning the crowds over, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, presuming him to be dead.


sn Antioch was a city in Pisidia about 90 mi (145 km) west northwest of Lystra.

sn Iconium was a city in Lycaonia about 18 mi (30 km) north of Lystra. Note how Jews from other cities were chasing Paul (2 Cor 11:4-6; Gal 2:4-5; Acts 9:16).

tn The participle πείσαντες (peisante") is taken temporally (BDAG 791 s.v. πείθω 1.c).

tn Grk “stoning Paul they dragged him.” The participle λιθάσαντες (liqasante") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.
