UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

γεγεννημένος ἐν Ταρσῷ τῆς Κιλικίας

/having_been/_born in Tarsus ¬the ˱of˲_Cilicia

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: [a native of Tarsus of Cilicia]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἀνατεθραμμένος δὲ ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ, παρὰ τοὺς πόδας Γαμαλιήλ, πεπαιδευμένος

/having_been/_brought_up but in ¬the city this before the feet ˱of˲_Gamaliel /having_been/_instructed

Paul is using the phrase at the feet to refer to Gamaliel himself by association with the way a student in this culture would sit at the feet of a teacher (that is, on the ground in front of a teacher) while learning from him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [but educated in this city by Gamaliel, instructed]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἀνατεθραμμένος δὲ ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ, παρὰ τοὺς πόδας Γαμαλιήλ, πεπαιδευμένος

/having_been/_brought_up but in ¬the city this before the feet ˱of˲_Gamaliel /having_been/_instructed

If your language does not use these passive forms, you could state this using active forms. It may be helpful to begin new sentences here. Alternate translation: [However, Gamaliel educated me in this city. He instructed me]

Note 4 topic: translate-names

Γαμαλιήλ

˱of˲_Gamaliel

The word Gamaliel is the name of the man who was one of the most prominent teachers of the Jewish law at this time. See how you translated his name in 5:34.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

κατὰ ἀκρίβειαν

according_to /the/_exactness

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of strictness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [according to the most strict interpretation]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

πατρῴου

ancestral

Peter is using the term fathers to mean “ancestors.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [of our ancestors]

καθὼς πάντες ὑμεῖς ἐστε σήμερον

as all you_all are today

Paul compares himself with the crowd. Alternate translation: [in the same way that all of you are today]
