rwp - Acts:9:32-35

rwp@Acts:9:32 @{Lydda} (\Ludda\). In O.T. Lod (1Chronicles:8:12|) and near Joppa. Later Diospolis.

rwp@Acts:9:33 @{Aenias} (\Ainean\). Old Greek name and so probably a Hellenistic Jew. He was apparently a disciple already (the saint, verse 32|). Luke the physician notes that he had been bed ridden for eight years. See on ¯5:15| for "bed" (\krabattou\) and ¯8:7; strkjv@Luke:5:18| for "paralyzed" (\paralelumenos\, perfect passive participle of \paralu\ with \n\, periphrastic past perfect passive).

rwp@Acts:9:34 @{Healeth} (\itai\). Aoristic present middle indicative, heals here and now. {Make thy bed} (\strson seauti\). First aorist (ingressive) active imperative of \strnnumi\ (\-u\). Old word with "bed" (\krabatton\) understood as the object. Literally, spread thy bed for thyself (dative case), what others for eight years have done for thee.

rwp@Acts:9:35 @{Sharon} (\Sarna\). The Plain of Sharon, not a town. Thirty miles long from Joppa to Caesarea.
