Acts 3:12

Context
3:12 When Peter saw this, he declared to the people, “Men of Israel, 1  why are you amazed at this? Why 2  do you stare at us as if we had made this man 3  walk by our own power or piety?

1 tn Or perhaps “People of Israel,” since this was taking place in Solomon’s Portico and women may have been present. The Greek ἄνδρες ᾿Ισραηλῖται (andre" Israhlitai) used in the plural would normally mean “men, gentlemen” (BDAG 79 s.v. ἀνήρ 1.a).

2 tn Grk “or why.”

3 tn Grk “him”; the referent (the man) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
