TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:1-11 Luke is fond of balancing a positive example with a negative example. He has just recorded the remarkable story of Barnabas (4:36-37). Now Luke presents the opposite conduct of Ananias and Sapphira, who were tempted by the desire to be held in high regard. Ananias had not been forced to sell his property or to give the proceeds away. The couple’s sin was in their pretense and deception.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐνοσφίσατο ἀπὸ τῆς τιμῆς

embezzled from the value

The implication, as the story later makes clear, is that Ananias did not tell anyone except his wife that he was keeping some of the money for himself. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly, and you could state why he did this. Alternate translation: “he kept some of the money from the sale for himself, but he did not admit that he was doing that, because he wanted everyone to think he was being completely generous”

συνειδυίης καὶ τῆς γυναικός, καὶ ἐνέγκας μέρος τι & ἔθηκεν

/having/_become_aware also the wife and /having/_brought portion /a/_certain & ˱he˲_laid_‹it›

It may be helpful to make two new sentences here, particularly if you add information to the previous phrase as suggested in the preceding note. Alternate translation: “His wife also knew that he was keeping back part of the sale money. He brought a certain portion of the money and laid it”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

παρὰ τοὺς πόδας τῶν ἀποστόλων ἔθηκεν

before the feet ˱of˲_the ambassadors ˱he˲_laid_‹it›

This means that he presented to money to the apostles. See how you translated the same expression in 4:37. Alternate translation: “he presented it to the apostles”
