* **what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great Diana and of the image which fell down from heaven?** - This is a rhetorical question used to calm the crowd. It can also be translated, "every man knows that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great Diana and of the image which fell down from heaven." (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_rquestion]])
* **temple-keeper** - The Ephesian people maintained and guarded the temple of Artemis.
* **the image that fell down from heaven?** - Within the temple of Artemis was an image of the goddess that had been fashioned from a meteorite, a rock thought to have come directly from Zeus.
