Acts 21:23

Context

Acts 28:1

Context
Paul on Malta

28:1 After we had safely reached shore, 5  we learned that the island was called Malta. 6 

1 tn Grk “do this that.”

2 tn Grk “There are four men here.”

3 tn L&N 33.469 has “‘there are four men here who have taken a vow’ or ‘we have four men who…’ Ac 21:23.”

4 tn On the term for “vow,” see BDAG 416 s.v. εὐχή 2.

5 tn Grk “We having been brought safely through” [to land] (same verb as 27:44). The word “shore” is implied, and the slight variations in translation from 27:44 have been made to avoid redundancy in English. The participle διασωθέντες (diaswqente") has been taken temporally.

6 sn Malta is an island (known by the same name today) in the Mediterranean Sea south of Sicily. The ship had traveled 625 mi (1,000 km) in the storm.
