UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

λαλούντων & αὐτῶν

speaking & ˱of˲_them

The pronoun they refers to Peter and John. Alternate translation: [as Peter and John were speaking]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ στρατηγὸς τοῦ ἱεροῦ

the officer ˱of˲_the temple

The temple had its own guards, and this man was their commanding officer. Alternate translation: [the commander of the temple guard]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἱ Σαδδουκαῖοι

the the Sadducees

The Sadducees would have been particularly upset that Peter and John were saying that God raised Jesus from the dead, because they did not believe in the resurrection. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain that explicitly here. Alternate translation: [the Sadducees, who do not believe in the resurrection,]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

οἱ Σαδδουκαῖοι

the the Sadducees

Luke is using the name of the whole group to mean some of its members. Alternate translation: [some of the Sadducees]
