| NET Notes |
1 sn See the note on synagogues in 4:15. 2 tn Grk “and the,” 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. 3 tn Grk “about how or what you should say in your defense,” but this is redundant with the following clause, “or what you should say.” |
