Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀπελύθησαν μετ’ εἰρήνης ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδελφῶν
˱they˲_/were/_sent_away with peace from the brothers
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [the brothers sent them away with peace]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τῶν ἀδελφῶν
the brothers
Luke is using the term brothers to mean people who share the same faith. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the believers]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πρὸς τοὺς ἀποστείλαντας αὐτούς
to the_‹ones› /having/_sent_out them
Luke is referring implicitly to the apostles and elders in Jerusalem, who had sent Judas and Silas to Antioch. You can include this information if your readers need it to understand the sentence. Alternate translation: [back to the apostles and elders in Jerusalem]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
