OET interlinear ACTs 4:21

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

οἱ δὲ προσαπειλησάμενοι ἀπέλυσαν αὐτούς

they (Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ προσαπειλησάμενοι ἀπέλυσαν αὐτούς μηδέν εὑρίσκοντες τό πῶς κολάσωνται αὐτούς διά τόν λαόν ὅτι πάντες ἐδόξαζον τόν Θεόν ἐπί τῷ γεγονότι)

The pronoun them refers in both instances to Peter and John, and the pronoun they refers to the council members. It may be helpful to your readers to clarify this. Alternate translation: [having warned Peter and John further, the council members released them]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

διὰ τὸν λαόν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ προσαπειλησάμενοι ἀπέλυσαν αὐτούς μηδέν εὑρίσκοντες τό πῶς κολάσωνται αὐτούς διά τόν λαόν ὅτι πάντες ἐδόξαζον τόν Θεόν ἐπί τῷ γεγονότι)

The implication is that the Jewish leaders were afraid that the people would riot if they punished Peter and John. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: [They were afraid that if they did punish Peter and John, the people would riot]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

πάντες ἐδόξαζον τὸν Θεὸν

all ˓were˒_glorifying (Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ προσαπειλησάμενοι ἀπέλυσαν αὐτούς μηδέν εὑρίσκοντες τό πῶς κολάσωνται αὐτούς διά τόν λαόν ὅτι πάντες ἐδόξαζον τόν Θεόν ἐπί τῷ γεγονότι)

Here, all is a generalization for emphasis. Alternate translation: [large numbers of them were glorifying God]
