Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἀπὸ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ταῦτα εἰπών βλεπόντων αὐτῶν ἐπήρθη καί νεφέλη ὑπέλαβεν αὐτόν ἀπό τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν)
Luke is using the eyes of the apostles to mean their capacity to see. Alternate translation: [from their sight]
OET-LV And having_said these things, seeing them, he_was_lifted_up and a_cloud took_ him _up from the eyes of_them.
OET (OET-RV) After he’d said that and while they were still looking at him, he was lifted up into the sky until they could no longer see him because of the clouds.
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.
