OET (OET-RV) However, I must confess that I follow ‘The Path’ that they call a sect which serves the God of our ancestors and believes everything in Mosheh’ law as well as the writings of the prophets.
Note 1 topic: translate-names
τὴν Ὁδὸν
the Way
As the General Notes to chapter 9 explain, the Way was one of the first names that people used to describe the community of believers in Jesus. If your language has a word for “way” or “path” that you can use as a name, it would be appropriate to use it in your translation. See what you did in 9:2.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τοῖς ἐν τοῖς προφήταις γεγραμμένοις
the_‹things› ˱in˲_the_‹things› in the prophets /having_been/_written
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 things that the prophets wrote”
Note 3 topic: translate-names
τοῖς προφήταις
the_‹things› ˱in˲_the_‹things› the prophets
The word Prophets is the name of a section of the Bible that contains the books in which the prophets recorded the messages that God gave them. Alternate translation: “the books that the prophets wrote”
24:14 the Way: See study note on 9:2.
• Paul emphasized his common ground with his Jewish audience, including his worship, belief in the Jewish law, acceptance of the prophets, and hope in the resurrection (24:14, 15; see 24:21).

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.
