[11:4]  1 tn Heb “for his thing is from me.”

[11:4]  2 tn Heb “and they heard the words of the Lord and returned from going against Jeroboam.”

[7:26]  3 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Moses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:26]  4 tn Grk “saw them”; the context makes clear that two individuals were involved (v. 27).

[7:26]  5 tn Or “tried to reconcile” (BDAG 964-65 s.v. συναλλάσσω).

[13:26]  6 tn Grk “Men brothers,” but this is both awkward and unnecessary in English.

[13:26]  7 tn Grk “sons”

[13:26]  8 tn Or “race.”

[13:26]  9 tn Grk “and those among you who fear God,” but this is practically a technical term for the category called God-fearers, Gentiles who worshiped the God of Israel and in many cases kept the Mosaic law, but did not take the final step of circumcision necessary to become a proselyte to Judaism. See further K. G. Kuhn, TDNT 6:732-34, 743-44. Note how Paul includes God-fearing Gentiles as recipients of this promise.

[13:26]  10 tn Grk “word.”
