Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

17:1-9 After traveling through Macedonia to Thessalonica, Paul preached to the Jews first (Rom 1:16) in the synagogue. Here, as elsewhere, there was a mixed response.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τινας ἀδελφοὺς

some 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: [some other believers]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

οἱ τὴν οἰκουμένην ἀναστατώσαντες

the_‹ones› the inhabited_world /having/_upset

The Jewish leaders are exaggerating the influence of Paul and Silas and their teaching. Alternate translation: [These men who have caused trouble wherever they have gone]
