Notes: There may be difficulties involved in expressing the concept of ‘to shine around,’ since a more or less literal rendering might suggest a particular circle of light moving around an object. A more satisfactory way of dealing with this problem of ‘to shine around’ is to say ‘it was light there’ or ‘light shone upon me.’ In the case of RV ACT 26:13 · LV ACT 26:13 · Read together ACT 26:13, one may translate ‘I saw a light from the sky there where I was.’
