[3:4]  ¹ tn Grk “Peter, looking directly at him, as did John, said.” The participle ἀτενίσας (atenisas) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[5:14]  ² tn Or “More and more believers were added to the Lord.”

[5:27]  ³ tn Or “the Sanhedrin” (the highest legal, legislative, and judicial body among the Jews).

[5:27]  ⁴ tn Or “interrogated,” “asked.”

[6:10]  ⁴ tn Grk “and.” The context, however, indicates that the conjunction carries an adversative force.

[6:10]  ⁵ sn They were not able to resist. This represents another fulfillment of Luke 12:11-12; 21:15.

[13:23]  ⁵ tn Or “From the offspring”; Grk “From the seed.”

[13:23]  ⁶ sn The phrase this man is in emphatic position in the Greek text.

[13:23]  ⁷ tn Grk “according to [his] promise.” The comparative clause “just as he promised” is less awkward in English.

[16:5]  ⁶ tn BDAG 437 s.v. ἡμέρα 2.c has “every day” for this phrase.

[20:8]  ⁷ tn More commonly λαμπάς (lampa") means “torch,” but here according to BDAG 585 s.v. λαμπάς 2, “lamp…w. a wick and space for oil.”

[20:8]  ⁸ sn This is best taken as a parenthetical note by the author.

[26:21]  ⁸ tn Grk “in the temple.” This is actually a reference to the courts surrounding the temple proper, and has been translated accordingly.

[27:37]  ⁹ tc One early ms (B) and an early version (sa) read “about seventy-six.” For discussion of how this variant probably arose, see F. F. Bruce, The Acts of the Apostles, 465.

[27:37]  ¹⁰ sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.
