Psalms 107:7
Context107:7 He led them on a level road, 1
that they might find a city in which to live.
Acts 17:26
Context17:26 From one man 2 he made every nation of the human race 3 to inhabit the entire earth, 4 determining their set times 5 and the fixed limits of the places where they would live, 6
[107:7] 1 sn A level road. See Jer 31:9.
[17:26] 2 sn The one man refers to Adam (the word “man” is understood).
[17:26] 3 tn Or “mankind.” BDAG 276 s.v. ἔθνος 1 has “every nation of humankind Ac 17:26.”
[17:26] 4 tn Grk “to live over all the face of the earth.”
[17:26] 5 tn BDAG 884-85 s.v. προστάσσω has “(οἱ) προστεταγμένοι καιροί (the) fixed times Ac 17:26” here, but since the following phrase is also translated “fixed limits,” this would seem redundant in English, so the word “set” has been used instead.
[17:26] 6 tn Grk “the boundaries of their habitation.” L&N 80.5 has “fixed limits of the places where they would live” for this phrase.
