# Acts 28 General Notes
|
|
|
|
### Structure and formatting
|
|
|
|
No one knows for sure why Luke ends his history without telling what happened to Paul after he had been in Rome for two years.
|
|
|
|
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
|
|
|
#### "Letters" and "brothers"
|
|
|
|
The Jewish leaders were surprised that Paul wanted to speak with them, because they had received no letters from the high priest in Jerusalem telling them that Paul was coming.
|
|
|
|
When the Jewish leaders spoke of "brothers," they were referring to fellow Jews, not to Christians.
|
|
|
|
### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter
|
|
|
|
#### "He was a god"
|
|
|
|
The native people believed that Paul was a god, but they did not believe that he was the one true God. We do not know why Paul did not tell the native people that he was not a god.
