OET interlinear ACTs 2:46

uW Translation Notes:

καθ’ ἡμέραν τε προσκαρτεροῦντες ὁμοθυμαδὸν

in_every day and persevering with_one_accord

The word unanimously indicates that the apostles and other believers shared a common commitment and purpose and that there was no strife among them. See how you translated the same expression in 1:14. As the General Notes to this chapter suggest, it may be helpful to start a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “Continuing to meet with one accord” or “Continuing to meet harmoniously”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ

in the temple

Only priests were allowed inside the temple building, so when Luke says the temple here, he means the courtyard associated with the temple. Alternate translation: “in the temple courtyard”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

κλῶντές & κατ’ οἶκον ἄρτον

breaking & in_every house bread

See how you translated the similar expression in 2:42. There were two possible meanings there, but here breaking bread seems to mean specifically sharing meals. Alternate translation: “having meals together in their homes”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν ἀγαλλιάσει καὶ ἀφελότητι καρδίας

in with exultation and simplicity ˱of˲_heart

Here, the heart represents the emotions. Alternate translation: “with feelings of exultation and sincerity”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν ἀγαλλιάσει καὶ ἀφελότητι καρδίας

in with exultation and simplicity ˱of˲_heart

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the ideas behind the words exultation and sincerity, you could express the same ideas with adverbs that would indicate feelings. Alternate translation: “joyfully and sincerely”
