UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

καὶ αὐτοὶ προφῆται ὄντες

and also themselves prophets being

When Luke says also, he means implicitly that Judas and Silas were prophets as Paul and Barnabas were 13:1. You can include this information if your readers need it to understand the sentence. Alternate translation: “who were prophets as Paul and Barnabas were prophets”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς

the brothers

Luke is using the term brothers to mean people who share the same faith. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “their fellow believers”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

διὰ λόγου πολλοῦ & καὶ ἐπεστήριξαν

by speech much & and ˱they˲_strengthened_‹them›

Luke is using the term word to mean a message of encouragement that Judas and Silas spoke to the believers in Antioch by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “by speaking to them at length to strengthen them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐπεστήριξαν

˱they˲_strengthened_‹them›

Luke does not mean that Judas and Silas strengthened the believers physically but that they strengthened them spiritually. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “strengthened them in their faith”
