Context21:17 You will be hated by everyone because of my name. 1 21:18 Yet 2 not a hair of your head will perish. 3
Acts 27:34
Context27:34 Therefore I urge you to take some food, for this is important 4 for your survival. 5 For not one of you will lose a hair from his head.”
[21:17] 1 sn See Luke 6:22, 27; 1 Cor 1:25-31.
[21:18] 2 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “yet” to indicate the contrast present in this context.
[21:18] 3 sn Given v. 16, the expression not a hair of your head will perish must be taken figuratively and refer to living ultimately in the presence of God.
[27:34] 4 tn Or “necessary.” BDAG 873-74 s.v. πρός 1 has “πρ. τῆς σωτηρίας in the interest of safety Ac 27:34”; L&N 27.18 has “‘therefore, I urge you to take some food, for this is important for your deliverance’ or ‘…for your survival’ Ac 27:34.”
[27:34] 5 tn Or “deliverance” (‘salvation’ in a nontheological sense).
