Footnotes

42

The name Αἰνέας derives from the Greek root αἶνος (“praise, commendation, laudatory tale”) and the verb αἰνέω (“to praise, approve”). Thus Αἰνέας carries the sense “the praiseworthy one” or “man of praise.” In Greco-Roman tradition, Aeneas is the Trojan hero, son of Anchises and Aphrodite, who survived the fall of Troy and became the legendary progenitor of Rome. In Acts 9:33, the same name is borne by a paralytic in Lydda, likely reflecting the Greek heroic name rather than a Semitic equivalent.
