OET interlinear ACTs 13:20

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ὡς ἔτεσι τετρακοσίοις καὶ πεντήκοντα

about years four_hundred (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὡς ἔτεσι τετρακοσίοις καί πεντήκοντα Καί μετά ταῦτα ἔδωκεν κριτάς ἕως Σαμουήλ προφήτου)

Paul is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context. It may be helpful to make this a separate sentence. Alternate translation: [All these events took place over a period of about 450 years]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἔδωκεν κριτὰς ἕως Σαμουὴλ προφήτου

˱he˲_gave_‹them› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὡς ἔτεσι τετρακοσίοις καί πεντήκοντα Καί μετά ταῦτα ἔδωκεν κριτάς ἕως Σαμουήλ προφήτου)

This could mean: (1) that God gave the Israelites a series of judges and Samuel was the last of them. Alternate translation: [he gave them a series of judges ending with Samuel, who was also a prophet]; (2) that the phrase Samuel the prophet represents the time period associated with Samuel. Alternate translation: [until the time of Samuel the prophet]
