Document Details : Title: 'The Apostles Whom He Chose because of the Holy Spirit' Subtitle: A Suggestion Regarding Acts 1,2 Author(s): KILGALLEN, John J. Journal: Biblica Volume: 81 Issue: 3 Date: 2000 Pages: 414-417 DOI: 10.2143/BIB.81.3.3200449 Abstract : In Acts 1,2 Luke has placed 'through the Holy Spirit' between two verb forms, the participle 'having given orders' and the verb 'he had chosen'; suggestions have been offered over the years as to which of these two verb forms 'through the Holy Spirit' is supposed to modify. In this note, there is offered a fresh suggestion to resolve this syntactical problem; moreover, with this suggestion Luke's intention is better clarified. |
