Acts 2:32

Context

Acts 10:40

Context
10:40 but 2  God raised him up on the third day and caused him to be seen, 3 

Acts 13:37

Context
13:37 but the one 4  whom God raised up did not experience 5  decay.

1 tn Or “of him”; Grk “of which [or whom] we are all witnesses” (Acts 1:8).

2 tn The conjunction “but” is not in the Greek text, but the contrast is clearly implied in the context. This is technically asyndeton, or lack of a connective, in Greek.

3 tn Grk “and granted that he should become visible.” The literal Greek idiom is somewhat awkward in English. L&N 24.22 offers the translation “caused him to be seen” for this verse.

4 sn The one whom God raised up refers to Jesus.

5 tn Grk “see,” but the literal translation of the phrase “did not see decay” could be misunderstood to mean simply “did not look at decay,” while here “did not see decay” is really figurative for “did not experience decay.”
