UTN uW Translation Notes:

ἔσχατον & πάντων

lastly & ˱of˲_all

Here, last of all identifies Paul’s vision of Christ as the last one to occur in the list he has been giving. Alternate translation: “more recently than all the others”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὡσπερεὶ τῷ ἐκτρώματι, ὤφθη κἀμοί

as_though ˱to˲_the miscarriage ˱he˲_/was/_seen ˱by˲_also_me

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Paul uses the passive form to emphasize the person being seen rather than the person who does the “seeing.” Alternate translation: “I also saw him, as if I were a child born at the wrong time”

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

τῷ ἐκτρώματι

˱to˲_the miscarriage

Here, a child born at the wrong time could refer to: (1) a child whose birth is unexpected because it is too soon. Alternate translation: “to a child born at an unusual time” (2) a child who is born dead. Alternate translation: “to a stillborn child”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὡσπερεὶ τῷ ἐκτρώματι

as_though ˱to˲_the miscarriage

Paul here compares himself to a child born at the wrong time. He may mean: (1) that he saw Christ and became an apostle suddenly or at an unusual time, just like a child born at the wrong time. Alternate translation: “which happened suddenly, as if I were a child born at the wrong time” (2) that before Christ appeared to him, he was as powerless and wretched as a child born at the wrong time. Alternate translation: “who was as powerless and wretched as a child born at the wrong time”
