OET (OET-RV) The next day we continued on to Caesarea and ended up in Philip’s house. He was one of the original seven men who had been given the responsibility of distributing aid—a preacher of the good message, and we stayed with him.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐκ τῶν ἑπτὰ
of the seven
Luke assumes that his readers will understand that by the Seven, he means the seven men who were chosen in 6:5 to distribute food and other assistance to the widows among the believers. You can include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “one of the seven men who had been chosen to oversee the assistance that the believers were providing to widows”
Note 2 topic: grammar-honorifics
τοῦ εὐαγγελιστοῦ
the gospel_preacher
Luke is using the title evangelist to acknowledge the special work that Philip did in proclaiming the gospel. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a descriptive phrase preceded by a comma in your translation rather than a title. Alternate translation: “, a man known for proclaiming the gospel”
21:8 Philip had the title of Evangelist due to his evangelistic activity (8:4-40; cp. Eph 4:11; 2 Tim 4:5).

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