tn Heb “and he appeared to him.”

tn Grk “weeping a great deal,” thus “loudly” (BDAG 472 s.v. ἱκανός and BDAG 546 s.v. κλαυθμός).

tn Grk “fell on Paul’s neck” (an idiom, see BDAG 1014 s.v. τράχηλος).

sn The Ephesians elders kissed Paul as a sign of both affection and farewell. The entire scene shows how much interrelationship Paul had in his ministry and how much he and the Ephesians meant to each other.
