1 tn Grk “On the next day,” but since this phrase has already occurred in v. 23, it would be redundant in English to use it again here. 2 sn Caesarea was a city on the coast of Palestine south of Mount Carmel (not Caesarea Philippi). map For location see Map2 C1; Map4 B3; Map5 F2; Map7 A1; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4. 3 tn Normally προσδοκάω (prosdokaw) means “to wait with apprehension or anxiety for something,” often with the implication of impending danger or trouble (L&N 25.228), but in this context the anxiety Cornelius would have felt came from the importance of the forthcoming message as announced by the angel. |
