<< Acts 23:8   Acts 23:10 >>


Acts 23:9

Strove (diemaxonto). Imperfect middle of diamaxomai, old Attic verb, to fight it out (between, back and forth, fiercely). Here only in the N.T. It was a lively scrap and Luke pictures it as going on. The Pharisees definitely take Paul's side.

And what if a spirit hath spoken to him or an angel? (ei de pneuma elalhsen autw h aggelos). This is aposiopesis, not uncommon in the N.T., as in Luke 13:9; John 6:62 (Robertson, Grammar, p. 1203). See one also in Exodus 32:32.
