NET Notes |
1 sn The presence of the Lord indicated the vindicating presence and direction of God. 2 tn Grk “standing near Paul, said.” The participle ἐπιστάς (epistas) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style. 3 tn Grk “him”; the referent (Paul) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 4 tn Or “Do not be afraid.” 5 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4. 6 sn Like Jesus went to Jerusalem, Paul would now go to Rome. This trip forms the concluding backdrop to Acts. This is the second notice about going to Rome (see Acts 19:21 for the first). 6 map For location see JP4 A1. |
