Cloth items carried to the sick · dominant
In Acts 19:12, the accusative plural neuter form occurs among items carried away after touching a person's skin; the APB renders the clause, "even cloths or aprons that had touched his skin were carried away to the sick."
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 19:12, the APB includes "aprons" alongside "cloths" in its rendering of the clause. The precise English correspondence of the Greek form remains uncertain.
