TSNTyndale Study Notes:

14:4 The apostolic message required a decision about belief in Jesus, and opinion was clearly split.
• Paul and Barnabas are called apostles for the first time (also in 14:14), extending the idea of apostleship beyond the Twelve. Their message was in continuity with that of the original apostles, and they were prepared to suffer hardship and persecution for it as the earlier apostles had done (5:41; 14:19; 20:24; 21:13-14; see also Rom 8:35-38; 2 Cor 4:8-17).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐσχίσθη & τὸ πλῆθος τῆς πόλεως

/was/_divided & the multitude ˱of˲_the city

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 people of the city disagreed with each other”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

σὺν τοῖς ἀποστόλοις

with the with the ambassadors

Paul is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “were with the apostles”
