NET © Notes

tn Grk “he”; the referent (Cornelius) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Grk “said,” but in response to the angel’s address, “replied” is better English style.

tn Grk “he”; the referent (the angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Or “your gifts to the needy.”

sn The language used in the expression gone up as a memorial before God parallels what one would say of acceptable sacrifices (Ps 141:2; Sir 35:6; 50:16).
