{Hungry} (prospeinos) Only instance of the word known, a
hapax legomenon. Probably "very hungry" (pros=besides, in
addition). {Desired} ((8874)helen). Imperfect active. Was longing
to eat. It was about twelve o'clock noon and Peter may even have
smelt the savory dishes, "while they made ready"
(paraskeuazont(936e)). "The natural and the supernatural border
closely on one another, with no definable limits" (Furneaux). {He
fell into a trance} (egeneto ep' auton ekstasis). More exactly,
"An ecstasy came upon him," in which trance he passed out of
himself (ekstasis, from exist(886d)i) and from which one came to
himself ( 12:11 ). Cf. also 11:5 22:17 . It is thus different
from a vision (horama) as in verse 3 .
