Joshua 2:5

2:5 When it was time to shut the city gate for the night, the men left. ¹  I don’t know where they were heading. Chase after them quickly, for you have time to catch them!”

Acts 5:23

5:23 “We found the jail locked securely and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them, ²  we found no one inside.”

[2:5]  ¹ tn Heb “And the gate was to be shut in the darkness and the men went out.”

[5:23]  ² tn The word “them” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects in Greek were often omitted when clear from the context, but must be supplied for the modern English reader.
