10:1-8 a Roman army officer: Literally a centurion, the highest-ranking non-commissioned officer in the Roman army, in command of a century, a subdivision of roughly 100 men. Luke often describes centurions in favorable terms (10:22; 21:32; 22:25-26; 23:17, 23; 27:6, 11, 43; 28:16; Luke 7:1-10; 23:47). It was important for Luke to show that Christianity was not hostile to Roman officials or institutions and could, like Judaism, be permitted in the Roman Empire (see Acts Book Introduction, “Purposes of Acts: Politics”).
• a captain of the Italian Regiment: A regiment included six centuries; a Roman legion was usually divided into ten regiments. The New Testament mentions the Italian Regiment and the Imperial Regiment (Acts 27:1).
Note 1 topic: writing-participants
ἀνὴρ δέ τις
/a/_man and certain
Luke uses this phrase to introduce a new character into the story. If your language has its own way of doing that, you could use it here in your translation.
Note 2 topic: translate-names
Κορνήλιος
Cornelius
Cornelius is the name of a man.
Note 3 topic: translate-unknown
ἑκατοντάρχης
/a/_centurion
A centurion was an officer in the Roman army who was in charge of a group of 100 soldiers. Such a group was called a “century.” Alternate translation: “an army officer in charge of 100 soldiers”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
Σπείρης τῆς καλουμένης Ἰταλικῆς
˱of˲_/the/_Cohort ¬which /being/_called Italian
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 regiment people called Italian” or “the regiment whose name was Italian” or “the Italian Regiment”
Note 5 topic: translate-unknown
Σπείρης
˱of˲_/the/_Cohort
A regiment was a military unit consisting of six centuries or 600 soldiers. You may have a term in your language that you can use for a unit of about this size.
Note 6 topic: translate-names
Ἰταλικῆς
Italian
Italian is the name of a military unit. The name indicates that although the soldiers in it were stationed in Syria, they came from Italy and thus were native Romans. This made them more reliable protection for the high-ranking Roman officials whose residence was in Caesarea.
