1:9 After ¹  he had said this, while they were watching, he was lifted up and a cloud hid him from their sight.

[1:9]  ¹ tn Grk “And after.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[7:27]  ² tn Or “repudiated Moses,” “rejected Moses” (BDAG 126-27 s.v. ἀπωθέω 2).

[7:27]  ³ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Moses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:27]  ⁴ tn Or “appointed.”

[18:21]  ³ tn Or “but took leave of.”

[18:21]  ⁴ tn Grk “and saying”; the participle εἰπών (eipwn) has been translated as “added” rather than “said” to avoid redundancy with the previous “said farewell.” The participle εἰπών has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[18:21]  ⁵ tn Or “will return.”

[18:21]  ⁶ tn The participle θέλοντος (qelontos), a genitive absolute construction, has been translated as a conditional adverbial participle. Again Paul acts in dependence on God.

[18:21]  ⁷ tn A new sentence was begun here in the translation due to the length of the sentence in Greek and the requirements of contemporary English style, which generally uses shorter sentences.
