Acts 23:19

ἐπιλαβ.: “ut fiduciam adolescentis confirmaret,” Bengel, so Knabenbauer; on ἐπιλ. see note, Acts 17:19. τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, cf. Luke 8:54, Winer-Moulton, xxx. 8 d; see Calvin's note on the humanitas (as he calls it) of the centurion in thus receiving the young man. ἀναχ.: used also in Acts 26:31, but not by Luke in his Gospel, although found in the other Evangelists. κατʼ ἰδίαν ἐπυν.: “asked him privately,” R.V., as suggested by the order of the Greek.
