Acts 13:20 And after that he gave [unto them] judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet. The “four hundred and fifty years” in the Greek text precedes the references to the “judges”. This phrase, therefore, chronologically covers the period mentioned from verse 17 through verse 19; that is, the Jews sojourned in Egypt for four hundred years, wandered in the wilderness for 40 years, and spent about a decade conquering Canaan. So verse 20 could be translated: “After these things [namely, the event spanning the 450 years in verses 17-19] God gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.” TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY
