NETBible

When they heard this,¹ they ceased their objections² and praised³ God, saying, “So then, God has granted the repentance⁴ that leads to life even to the Gentiles.”⁵

NET Notes

¹tn Grk “these things.”

²tn Or “became silent,” but this would create an apparent contradiction with the subsequent action of praising God. The point, in context, is that they ceased objecting to what Peter had done.

³tn Or “glorified.”

⁴sn Here the summary phrase for responding to the gospel is the repentance that leads to life. Note how the presence of life is tied to the presence of the Spirit (cf. John 4:7-42; 7:37-39).

⁵sn In the Greek text the phrase even to the Gentiles is in an emphatic position.
