TSNTyndale Study Notes:

16:37-39 Paul and Silas were both Roman citizens, so the beating and imprisonment (16:22-24) had been illegal. After the city officials learned of this, they were justifiably alarmed because they had committed a crime against Rome.
• Let them come themselves to release us: Paul made use of his rights as a Roman citizen in order to clear his name and ensure that no disrepute would attach to the Christian message or those who accepted it. Luke intended to show that Christianity should enjoy the same status as Judaism in the Roman Empire as a permitted religion—the Christian faith was compatible with the life of a Roman citizen. Accordingly, it was important to note that Paul made use of his rights as a Roman citizen (cp. 22:25-27) and was ready to use the privileges of citizenship to advance the cause of Christ in a hostile world.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

παρεκάλεσαν αὐτούς & ἐξαγαγόντες, ἠρώτων

˱they˲_appealed ˱to˲_them & /having/_led_out_‹them› ˱they˲_/were/_asking_‹them›

The pronoun they refers to the magistrates, and the pronoun them refers to Paul and Silas. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “the magistrates entreated Paul and Silas … bringing them out, the magistrates were asking Paul and Silas”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

παρεκάλεσαν αὐτούς

˱they˲_appealed ˱to˲_them

Luke means implicitly that the magistrates entreated or begged Paul and Silas not to make any protest about how they had been treated. In effect, they apologized to them and asked them to overlook the offense. Alternate translation: “they apologized to them”
