| NET Notes |
1 tn Grk “fell down.” BDAG 815 s.v. πίπτω 1.b.α.ב. has “fall down, throw oneself to the ground as a sign of devotion or humility, before high-ranking persons or divine beings.” 2 tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. 3 sn This interpretive comment by the author forms a parenthesis in the narrative. |
