The Acts of the Apostles

218 THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES
xi. 15. Weiss finds a discrepancy between ev tw
ap^acrOai /xe XaXeiv and en XaXovi^rog tov Tlerpov
(x. 44)
; I cannot allow that this is so.
xi. 15. Weiss writes : " ex' avTov^ refers to the
avSpe^ aKpo/Bucrrlav cyovre^s in verse 3, however im-
possible this may be grammatically " ; but it really
refers to verse 14 {crv kol ira^ 6 oJko? arou), so that all
is in order.
xi. 17. Weiss here discovers a case of discrepancy
with X. 47, but I cannot see it.
xi. 18. Weiss raises the point that /xerai/om is
never mentioned in chapter x. ; it was not, however,
necessary to mention it. In spite of this, in giving a
summary of the events of chapter x., it was not out
of place to speak of ^ /meravoLa e/? ^corjv.
xii. 3. ^(rav Se ^/nipai r. a'^yjuLcov. A parenthesis;
but ov Kai Trmo-a? (verse 4) coming after avWa/Seti/
(verse 3) is tautologous ; it therefore appears that an
editor has been at work here.
xii. 6. ore Se tj/meXXev irpoayayeiv after jSouXo/uLevog
avayayeiv avTOv (verse 4) is tautologous, and r^ vvkti
€K€ivr] of verse 6^ does not fit in well with 6*. It
seems therefore that 6* originally followed verse 4,
and that the night in question was the first which
St. Peter spent in prison (Weiss), while the editor
treated it as the last night before the intended
execution.
xii. 17. Weiss thinks that the command to tell
the brethren is discrepant with the purport of verses
5 and 12^
xii. 17. etV erepov tottov—very strange; the
narrator must surely have known the place.
