TSNTyndale Study Notes:

13:44-49 The excitement caused by the apostles’ preaching led to a mass turnout on the following week. This response provoked the jealousy of some of the Jews (cp. 4:1-2; 5:17), whose ability to win converts to Judaism (13:43) was being dwarfed by Paul’s ministry. They verbally attacked Paul and his ministry (cp. 6:8-12; 18:6; 19:9; Matt 23:13). Paul met this hostility with a bold declaration that these Jews had had their opportunity to hear the word of God, and that since they had rejected it, the offer of salvation would now be given to the Gentiles (cp. Acts 10:34-35), in accord with the Lord’s command in Scripture. The local Gentiles welcomed the Good News and many responded to it, so the Lord’s message was carried throughout that region.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

λαληθῆναι τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ

/to_be/_spoken the word ¬the ˱of˲_God

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: “for us to speak the word of God”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὑμῖν & ἀναγκαῖον πρῶτον λαληθῆναι τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ

˱to˲_you_all & necessary first /to_be/_spoken the word ¬the ˱of˲_God

Paul and Barnabas are using the term word to mean the message that God commanded them to share by using words. Alternate translation: “the message from God”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὑμῖν & πρῶτον

˱to˲_you_all & first

Paul means implicitly that it was necessary to speak to the Jews first because they were God’s chosen people, and God had sent the Messiah initially to them. Alternate translation: “to you Jews first because you are God’s chosen people, and God sent the Messiah initially to you”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐπειδὴ ἀπωθεῖσθε αὐτὸν

since (Some words not found in SR-GNT: παρρησιασάμενοί τε ὁ Παῦλος καὶ ὁ Βαρναβᾶς εἶπαν ὑμῖν ἦν ἀναγκαῖον πρῶτον λαληθῆναι τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐπειδὴ δὲ ἀπωθεῖσθε αὐτὸν καὶ οὐκ ἀξίους κρίνετε ἑαυτοὺς τῆς αἰωνίου ζωῆς ἰδοὺ στρεφόμεθα εἰς τὰ ἔθνη)

Their rejection of the word of God is spoken of as if it were something they pushed away. Alternate translation: “Since you reject the word of God”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / irony

οὐκ ἀξίους κρίνετε ἑαυτοὺς τῆς αἰωνίου ζωῆς

not worthy ˱you_all˲_/are/_judging yourselves ¬the ˱of˲_eternal life

Paul does not seriously believe that the Jewish leaders do not consider themselves worthy of eternal life. Paul actually means to communicate the opposite of the literal meaning of his words. Alternate translation: “are acting as if you judge yourselves not worthy of eternal life”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἰδοὺ

behold

Paul and Barnabas are using the term behold to focus the attention of the Jewish leaders on what they are about to say. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation.

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

στρεφόμεθα εἰς τὰ ἔθνη

˱we˲_/are_being/_turned to the pagans

Paul and Barnabas are speaking as if they are going to be physically turning toward the Gentiles. They mean that they are going to stop preaching in the Jewish synagogue and begin preaching to gatherings of Gentiles. Alternate translation: “we will leave you and start preaching to the Gentiles”

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

στρεφόμεθα

˱we˲_/are_being/_turned

By we, Paul and Barnabas mean themselves, but not the Jewish leaders to whom they are speaking, so use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
