Acts 9:27

Context
9:27 But Barnabas took¹ Saul,² brought³ him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, that⁴ the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken out boldly⁵ in the name of Jesus.

¹tn Grk “taking Saul, brought him.” The participle ἐπιλαβόμενος (epilabomeno") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

²tn Grk “him”; the referent (Saul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³tn Grk “and brought,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

⁴tn Grk “and that,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

⁵tn On this verb which is used 7 times in Acts, see BDAG 782 s.v. παρρησιάζομαι 1. See also v. 28.
