Footnotes

  1. Acts 27:1 Literally “by name”
  2. Acts 27:1 The meaning and significance of the title “Augustan” is highly debated, as is the precise identification of this military unit; it may be an honorary unit designation given to auxiliary or provincial troops
  3. Acts 27:2 The word “coast” is not in the Greek text but is implied
  4. Acts 27:2 A reference to the Roman province of Asia (modern Asia Minor)
  5. Acts 27:2 Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“went aboard”) has been translated as a finite verb
