Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
κλάσας τὸν ἄρτον καὶ γευσάμενος
/having/_broke the bread and /having/_tasted_‹it›
Luke could be using the words broken and tasted to mean “eaten,” and he could be using the word bread to mean “food.” In each case he would be using one part of something to mean the whole thing. Breaking and tasting bread are things people do when they eat bread, and bread is one kind of food. So this could be a reference to the believers sharing a meal together. Alternate translation: [having shared a meal with the believers] or see the next note for a further possibility.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
κλάσας τὸν ἄρτον καὶ γευσάμενος
/having/_broke the bread and /having/_tasted_‹it›
By having broken bread and having tasted , Luke could also mean remembering the death of Jesus in the way that Jesus commanded, by literally breaking a loaf of bread and sharing it (and also sharing a cup of wine). If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [having observe the Lord’s Supper with the believers]
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐξῆλθεν
˱he˲_came_out
The pronoun he refers to Paul. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [Paul left]
20:5-15 This is another of the “we” passages in Acts (see study note on 16:10). Luke apparently rejoined Paul at Philippi, where Luke had remained several years earlier, and journeyed with Paul to Jerusalem (21:1-18).
OET (OET-LV) And having_gone_up, and having_broke the bread and having_tasted it, and for having_ much _conversed until daybreak, thus he_came_out.
OET (OET-RV) Then Paul went back up and broke the bread with the others, eating a little and continuing to talk with them until leaving at daybreak.
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.
