# General Information:
|
|
|
|
This is background information about Herod's killing James. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-background]])
|
|
|
|
# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
This begins the new persecution, first of James's death and then of Peter's imprisonment and then release.
|
|
|
|
# Now
|
|
|
|
This begins a new part of the story. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-newevent]])
|
|
|
|
# about that time
|
|
|
|
This refers to the time of the famine.
|
|
|
|
# laid hands on
|
|
|
|
This means Herod had the believers arrested. See how you translated this in [Acts 4:3](../04/03.md). Alternate translation: "sent soldiers to arrest" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])
|
|
|
|
# some who belonged to the church
|
|
|
|
Only James and Peter are specified, which implies that these were leaders of the church in Jerusalem. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
|
|
|
|
# so that he might mistreat them
|
|
|
|
"in order to cause the believers to suffer"
