UTNuW Translation Notes:

General Information:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

κατῆλθον

came_down

Luke says that Silas and Timothy came down to Corinth because that city is lower in elevation than Macedonia. Alternate translation: “traveled”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

συνείχετο τῷ λόγῳ ὁ Παῦλος

/was_being/_occupied ˱with˲_the word ¬the Paul

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: “Paul felt urgently that he needed to devote himself to the word”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

συνείχετο τῷ λόγῳ ὁ Παῦλος

/was_being/_occupied ˱with˲_the word ¬the Paul

Luke speaks of the word as if it were a living thing that could constrain Paul. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Paul felt urgently that he needed to devote himself to the word”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

συνείχετο τῷ λόγῳ ὁ Παῦλος

/was_being/_occupied ˱with˲_the word ¬the Paul

Luke is using the term word to mean preaching the message about Jesus by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “Paul felt urgently that he needed to devote himself to preaching the message about Jesus”
