NETBible

Now when I arrived in Troas¹ to proclaim the gospel of Christ, even though the Lord had opened² a door of opportunity³ for me,

NET Notes

¹sn Troas was a city and region in the northwest corner of Asia Minor.

²tn This has been translated as a concessive participle (“even though”). The passive construction (“a door of opportunity had been opened for me by the Lord”) has been converted to an active one in the translation for clarity.

³tn Grk “a door”; the phrase ἀνοίγω θύραν (anoigw quran, “to open a door”) is an idiom meaning “to make possible some opportunity” (L&N 71.9).
