Acts 13:19

After ¹  he had destroyed ²  seven nations ³  in the land of Canaan, he gave his people their land as an inheritance. ⁴ 

Ge 12:5; Ge 17:8; Nu 26:53-56; De 7:1; Jos 14:1; Jos 18:10; Jos 23:4; Jos 24:11; Ne 9:24; Ps 78:55; Ps 135:11; Ac 7:45

¹ tn Grk “And after.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

² tn The participle καθελών (kaqelwn) is taken temporally.

³ sn Seven nations. See Deut 7:1.

⁴ tn Grk “he gave their land as an inheritance.” The words “his people” are supplied to complete an ellipsis specifying the recipients of the land.
