This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Through a window (dia thuridos). For this late word see note on Act 20:9, the only N.T. example.
Was I let down (echalasthēn). First aorist passive of chalaō, the very word used by Luke in Act 9:25.
In a basket (en sarganēi). Old word for rope basket whereas Luke (Act 9:25) has en sphuridi (the word for the feeding of the 4,000 while kophinos is the one for the 5,000). This was a humiliating experience for Paul in this oldest city of the world whither he had started as a conqueror over the despised Christians.
