(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

On the morrow (epi tēn aurion). Towards the morrow as in Act 4:5. (Cf. also Act 3:1). Syriac Sinaitic has it “at dawn of the day.” An unusual use of epi.

Took out (ekbalōn). Second aorist active participle of ekballō. It could mean, “fling out,” but probably only means “drew out.” Common verb.

Two pence (duo dēnaria). About thirty-five cents, but worth more in purchasing power.

To the host (tōi pandochei). The innkeeper. Here only in the N.T.

Whatsoever thou spendest more (hoti an prosdapanēsēis). Indefinite relative clause with an and the aorist active subjunctive of prosdapanaō, to spend besides (pros), a late verb for the common prosanaliskō and here only in the N.T.

I will repay (ego apodōsō). Emphatic. What he had paid was merely by way of pledge. He was a man of his word and known to the innkeeper as reliable.

When I come back again (en tōi epanerchesthai me). Luke’s favourite idiom of en and the articular infinitive with accusative of general reference. Double compound verb epanerchomai.
