TSNTyndale Study Notes:

13:3 the men laid their hands on them: This solemn act was only done after more fasting and prayer; the Pastoral Epistles warn against laying hands on a person to appoint that person as a Christian leader without due care and diligence (1 Tim 5:22). At this point, Barnabas and Saul were sent . . . on their way as missionaries of the church at Antioch.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

νηστεύσαντες, καὶ προσευξάμενοι, καὶ ἐπιθέντες τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῖς, ἀπέλυσαν

/having/_fasted and /having/_prayed and /having/_laid_on their hands ˱on˲_them ˱they˲_sent_away_‹them›

The pronouns their and they refer to the believers in Antioch, and the pronoun them refers to Barnabas and Saul. The phrase having fasted and prayed refers to all of them. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “after they had all fasted and prayed together, the believers in Antioch laid their hands on Barnabas and Saul, and then the believers released them”

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

ἐπιθέντες τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῖς

/having/_laid_on their hands ˱on˲_them

The believers in Antioch laid their hands on Barnabas and Saul as a symbolic action to show that they were sending them on their mission with the blessing and support of the whole church and that they were entrusting them to God’s care. Alternate translation: “placed their hands on them as a sign of blessing and support and as a way of entrusting them to God’s care”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀπέλυσαν

˱they˲_sent_away_‹them›

While in this context the term released basically means “sent off,” the implication is that the believers in Antioch were freeing Barnabas and Saul of all of their responsibilities in the church so that they could go on the mission on which the Holy Spirit was sending them. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “they gave them the freedom to go on their new mission”
