Acts 7:54

Context
Stephen is Killed

7:54 When they heard these things, they became furious 3  and ground their teeth 4  at him.

1 sn The only other use of this verb for anger (furious) is Acts 7:54 after Stephen’s speech.

2 sn Wanted to execute them. The charge would surely be capital insubordination (Exod 22:28).

3 tn This verb, which also occurs in Acts 5:33, means “cut to the quick” or “deeply infuriated” (BDAG 235 s.v. διαπρίω).

4 tn Or “they gnashed their teeth.” This idiom is a picture of violent rage (BDAG 184 s.v. βρύχω). See also Ps 35:16.
