OET interlinear ACTs 9:23

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ὡς & ἐπληροῦντο ἡμέραι ἱκαναί

when & ˓were_being˒_fulfilled days many

As in [2:1](../02/01.md) and [7:23](../07/23.md), this is an idiomatic way of speaking about time. Alternate translation: [after many days]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὡς & ἐπληροῦντο ἡμέραι ἱκαναί

when & ˓were_being˒_fulfilled days many

Since this is an idiom, it would probably not be meaningful in most languages to retain the verb “fill” but use an active verbal form instead of the passive form here. However, if your language does speak of someone or something “filling” days or times so that they arrive, and if your language does not use passive verbal forms, you could use an active form of “fill” here.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι

the Jews

Luke is using the name of a whole group, the Jews, to refer to one part of that group, its leaders. Alternate translation: [the leaders of the Jews]

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

αὐτόν

him

The pronoun him refers to Saul. Alternate translation: [Saul]
