使徒行传 20章36节 到 20章36节 上一笔 下一笔 |
{He kneeled down} ( heis ta gonata autou). Second aorist active participle of ith(886d)i, to place. The very idiom used in 7:60 of Stephen. Not in ancient writers and only six times in the N.T. ( Mr 15:19 Lu 22:41 Ac 7:60 9:40 20:36 21:5 ). Certainly kneeling in prayer is a fitting attitude (cf. Jesus, Lu 22:41 ), though not the only proper one ( Mt 6:5 ). Paul apparently prayed aloud (pros(8875)xato). |
