| NET © Notes |
1 tn The participle πειθομένου (peiqomenou) in this genitive absolute construction has been translated as a causal adverbial participle. 2 tn Grk “we became silent, saying.” 3 sn “The Lord’s will be done.” Since no one knew exactly what would happen, the matter was left in the Lord’s hands. |
