NET © Notes |
1 tn Grk “It being revealed to me.” The participle μηνυθείσης (mhnuqeish") has been taken temporally. 2 tn The term translated “plot” here is a different one than the one in Acts 23:16 (see BDAG 368 s.v. ἐπιβουλή). 3 tn Grk “the things against him.” This could be rendered as “accusations,” “grievances,” or “charges,” but since “ordered his accusers to state their accusations” sounds redundant in English, “charges” was used instead. |
