TSNTyndale Study Notes:

15:36-41 The discordant separation of Paul and Barnabas is indicated by a very strong word in Greek (their disagreement was so sharp). It was an honest disagreement between two godly men about whether John Mark (Barnabas’s cousin, Col 4:10) should be given a second chance to accompany them on a mission journey after he had deserted them in Pamphylia (see Acts 13:13). The rift between Paul and John Mark was eventually healed (2 Tim 4:11).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes

Παῦλος & ἠξίου & μὴ συνπαραλαμβάνειν τοῦτον

Paul & /was/_considering_worthy_‹it› & not (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Παῦλος δὲ ἠξίου τὸν ἀποστάντα ἀπʼ αὐτῶν ἀπὸ Παμφυλίας καὶ μὴ συνελθόντα αὐτοῖς εἰς τὸ ἔργον μὴ συμπαραλαμβάνειν τοῦτον)

Luke is using a figure of speech that expresses a positive meaning by using a negative word together with a word that is the opposite of the intended meaning. Alternate translation: [Paul was thinking it would be foolish to take him with them]
