[4:30] 1 tn The miraculous nature of these signs is implied in the context.
[5:12] 2 tn The miraculous nature of these signs is implied in the context.
[5:12] 3 tn Grk “And by.” 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.
[5:12] 4 tn Or “With one mind.”
[5:12] 5 tn Or “colonnade”; Grk “stoa.”
[7:36] 3 tn Here the context indicates the miraculous nature of the signs mentioned.
[7:36] 4 tn Or simply “in Egypt.” The phrase “the land of” could be omitted as unnecessary or redundant.
[7:36] 5 tn Grk “and at,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
[8:6] 4 tn Grk “to what was being said by Philip,” a passive construction that has been changed to active voice in the translation.
[8:6] 5 tn Here the following context indicates the miraculous nature of the signs mentioned. This term appears 13 times in Acts, but only twice more after Acts 8:13 (i.e., 14:3; 15:12).
[8:13] 5 tn Or “he kept close company with.”
[8:13] 6 sn He was amazed. Now Simon, the one who amazed others, is himself amazed, showing the superiority of Philip’s connection to God. Christ is better than anything the culture has to offer.
