1 tn Or “exhorting.”

2 tn Or “and taking leave of them.”

3 sn Macedonia was the Roman province of Macedonia in Greece.

Acts 23:10

4 tn BDAG 633 s.v. μέρος 1.b.γ gives the meanings “the parts (of a geographical area), region, district,” but the use of “district” in this context probably implies too much specificity.

5 tn Grk “and encouraging them with many words.” The participle παρακαλέσας (parakalesa", “encouraging”) has been translated by the phrase “spoken…words of encouragement” because the formal equivalent is awkward in contemporary English.

6 tn Grk “[to] them”; the referent (the believers there) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

7 tn In popular usage the term translated “Greece” here could also refer to the Roman province officially known as Achaia (BDAG 318 s.v. ῾Ελλάς).

Acts 23:11

8 tn BDAG 841 s.v. ποιέω 5.c, “w. an acc. of time spend, stay.”

9 tn The participle βενομένης (benomenh") has been translated as a causal adverbial participle. L&N 30.71 has “ἐπιβουλῆςαὐτῷὑπὸτῶν᾿Ιουδαίων ‘because the Jews had made a plot against him’ Acts 20:3.”

10 sn This plot is one of several noted by Luke (Acts 9:20; 20:19; 23:30).

11 tn BDAG 628 s.v. μέλλω 1.c.γ has “denoting an intended action: intend, propose, have in mind…Acts 17:31; 20:3, 7, 13ab; 23:15; 26:2; 27:30.”

12 tn BDAG 62 s.v. ἀνάγω 4 gives “put out to sea” here (as a nautical technical term). However, since the English expression “put out to sea” could be understood to mean Paul was already aboard the ship (which is not clear from the context), the simpler expression “sail” is used at this point in the translation.

13 tn BDAG 199 s.v. γίνομαι 7 has “ἐγένετογνώμης he decided Acts 20:3.”

14 sn Macedonia was the Roman province of Macedonia in Greece.

Acts 23:12
