TSNTyndale Study Notes:

2:5-11 Because Pentecost was a pilgrimage festival (see study note on 2:1-4), Jews from every nation were present in Jerusalem at that time and were thus able to hear the Good News being proclaimed in their own languages. The Good News is for all people (2:38-39).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-background

δὲ

and

Luke uses the word Now to introduce background information that will help readers understand what happens next. You can translate it with a word or phrase that serves the same purpose in your language.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ἄνδρες εὐλαβεῖς

men devout

Luke is using the term men in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “godly people”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

παντὸς ἔθνους

every nation

The word every is a generalization that emphasizes that the people came from many different nations. Alternate translation: “many different nations”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ὑπὸ τὸν οὐρανόν

under ¬the heaven

The expression under heaven is a way of referring to being on earth. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “on earth”
