Acts 4:18-19

Context
4:18 And they called them in and ordered 1  them not to speak or teach at all in the name 2  of Jesus. 4:19 But Peter and John replied, 3  “Whether it is right before God to obey 4  you rather than God, you decide,

1 tn Or “commanded.”

2 sn In the name of Jesus. Once again, the “name” reflects the person. The person of Jesus and his authority is the “troubling” topic that, as far as the Jewish leadership is concerned, needs controlling.

3 tn Grk “answered and said to them.”

4 tn Grk “hear,” but the idea of “hear and obey” or simply “obey” is frequently contained in the Greek verb ἀκούω (akouw; see L&N 36.14).
