Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
πλείονες
more
Luke is using the adjective more as a noun to mean the larger number of people who came to hear Paul speak. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “more people”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
διαμαρτυρόμενος τὴν Βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ
testifying the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of a kingdom, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “testifying about how God had begun to rule as king”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
ἀπό τε τοῦ νόμου Μωϋσέως, καὶ τῶν προφητῶν
from both the law ˱of˲_Moses and the prophets
Luke is referring to all of the Hebrew Scriptures by naming two of their major parts. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “from passages throughout the Scriptures”
28:23 Paul explained how Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament hopes for the Kingdom of God, the master theme of Jesus’ own preaching (Mark 1:14-15; see Matt 4:12-17; Luke 4:14-21, 43). Referring to the Scriptures, Paul presented the case for Jesus as the promised Messiah.

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.
