# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
Luke continues the news of what was happening in Samaria.
|
|
|
|
# Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard
|
|
|
|
This marks the beginning of a new part of the story of the Samaritan's becoming believers. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-newevent]])
|
|
|
|
# Samaria
|
|
|
|
This refers to the many people, who had become believers, throughout the district of Samaria. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
|
|
|
|
# had received
|
|
|
|
"had believed" or "had accepted"
|
|
|
|
# When they had come down
|
|
|
|
"when Peter and John had come down"
|
|
|
|
# come down
|
|
|
|
This phrase is used here because Samaria is lower in elevation than Jerusalem.
|
|
|
|
# they prayed for them
|
|
|
|
"Peter and John prayed for the Samaritan believers"
|
|
|
|
# that they might receive the Holy Spirit
|
|
|
|
"that the Samaritan believers might receive the Holy Spirit"
|
|
|
|
# they had only been baptized
|
|
|
|
This can be stated in active form. AT: "Philip had only baptized the Samaritan believers" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
|
|
|
|
# they had only been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus
|
|
|
|
Here "name" represents authority, and being baptized into his name represents being baptized in order to be under his authority. AT: "they had only been baptized to become disciples of the Lord Jesus" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
|
|
|
|
# Peter and John placed their hands on them
|
|
|
|
The word "them" refers to the Samaritan people who believed Stephen's message of the gospel.
|
|
|
|
# placed their hands on them
|
|
|
|
This symbolic action shows that Peter and John wanted God to give the Holy Spirit to the believers. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction]])
