Apostelgeschichte 21:9 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 21:9

And the same man had four daughters
So that he was a married man, which may be observed against the Papists, who forbid marriage to ecclesiastics: and they were,

virgins:
not under any vow of virginity, but they had not as yet changed their state of life, and were pure and incorrupt:

which did prophesy;
not explain and interpret Scripture, or preach in public assemblies; for these were not allowed women, neither in the Jewish synagogues, nor in Christian assemblies; but they were endowed with a gift of foretelling future events, as was promised such should have in Gospel times, ( Joel 2:28 ) .

7 Wir aber vollzogen die Schiffahrt von Tyrus und kamen gen Ptolemais und grĂŒĂŸten die BrĂŒder und blieben einen Tag bei ihnen.
8 Des andern Tages zogen wir aus, die wir um Paulus waren, und kamen gen CĂ€sarea und gingen in das Haus Philippus des Evangelisten, der einer der sieben war, und blieben bei ihm.
9 Der hatte vier Töchter, die waren Jungfrauen und weissagten.
10 Und als wir mehrere Tage dablieben, reiste herab ein Prophet aus JudÀa, mit Namen Agabus, und kam zu uns.
11 Der nahm den GĂŒrtel des Paulus und band sich die HĂ€nde und FĂŒĂŸe und sprach: Das sagt der heilige Geist: Den Mann, des der GĂŒrtel ist, werden die Juden also binden zu Jerusalem und ĂŒberantworten in der Heiden HĂ€nde.
