Sacrificial victims brought in the wilderness · dominant
In Acts 7:42, the accusative plural form occurs in the question about what the house of Israel brought during forty years in the wilderness. The APB renders the clause, “Did you bring me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness,” confirming the verse’s sacrificial context.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 7:42, the APB presents the clause with “sacrifices and offerings.” It does not isolate the contribution of this term from the accompanying wording.
