26:23 λαω ¦ τε λαω CT PCK
Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs, red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
26:1-23 In his eloquent defense before King Agrippa, Paul argued that his preaching was completely consistent with the Jewish faith. The defense begins with a courteous acknowledgement of Agrippa’s competence to hear the evidence (26:2-3), outlines the nature of Paul’s background, Jewish training, and membership in the Pharisees (26:4-5), and explains that the charges against him are merely for believing the fulfillment of Jewish hopes for the resurrection (26:6-8). Paul then tells the story of his conversion from strong opponent of Christianity (26:9-11) through a vision on the way to Damascus (26:12-18; see 9:1-18). His preaching was nothing more than obeying this divine vision (26:19-20). Even though he encountered violent opposition from his fellow Jews (26:21), God protected him as he taught a message that the Jews should have embraced (26:22-23). This defense is a model for Christians put on trial for their faith (see 9:15; Luke 21:12-15).

if suffering the Messiah if first by resurrection ˱from˲_/the/_dead light /is/_going /to_be/_proclaiming
Paul could be saying that this is what Moses and the prophets said about the Messiah. You can provide this information in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “They addressed the question as to whether the Christ would be a sufferer, as to whether he, the first from the resurrection of the dead, was going to proclaim” or see next note for another possibility.
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact
εἰ παθητὸς ὁ Χριστός; εἰ πρῶτος ἐξ ἀναστάσεως νεκρῶν, φῶς μέλλει καταγγέλλειν
if suffering the Messiah if first by resurrection ˱from˲_/the/_dead light /is/_going /to_be/_proclaiming
Paul could be speaking as if what he is saying is a hypothetical possibility even though he believes that it is actually true. If your language does not state something as a condition if the speaker believes that it is true, then you can translate these words as an affirmative statement. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “Now since the Christ was a sufferer, since he was the first from the resurrection of the dead, then he was going to proclaim light”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
πρῶτος ἐξ ἀναστάσεως νεκρῶν
first by resurrection ˱from˲_/the/_dead
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of resurrection, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “the first person whom God made alive again after he died”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
νεκρῶν
˱from˲_/the/_dead
Paul is using the adjective dead as a noun to mean people who have died. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “of people who have died”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
φῶς μέλλει καταγγέλλειν
light /is/_going /to_be/_proclaiming
Paul is saying that the truth that Jesus proclaimed about God was like a light that allowed people to see. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “was going to proclaim the truth about God”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῷ & λαῷ
¬the & ˱to˲_/the/_people
By the people, Paul means specifically the Jewish people. Alternate translation: “to the Jewish people”
