Introduction

1:2 up; (a-21) The word means 'receiving,' but with the prefix (ana) 'up,' as here, it has the active sense of 'taking up.' It is so translated except in 1Tim. 3.16. The more passive reception is seen in Acts 3.21, where another word is used.

Acts 18:5

18:5 of (a-16) Or 'earnestly occupied with.' The Greek word is the same as 'constrains,' 2Cor. 5.14. Christ. (b-27) Lit. 'the Christ Jesus;' i.e. the Christ was really come, and that Jesus was he.'

Acts 18:6

18:6 pure; (c-25) Or 'I, pure [from it] from henceforth, will go to the nations.'

Acts 18:7

18:7 worshipped (d-17) See Note, ch. 13.43.

Acts 18:22

18:22 up (e-8) i.e. to Jerusalem.
