Acts 13:8 · Douay-Rheims
“But Elymas the magician (for so his name is interpreted) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.”
On this verse:
“But Elymas--or "the wise." for so is his name by interpretation--the word is from the Arabic. withstood them--perceiving, probably, how eagerly the proconsul was drinking in the word, and fearing a dismissal. (Compare Ti2 3:8).”
