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 as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. 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.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys

ἀποκριθεὶς & Πέτρος καὶ οἱ ἀπόστολοι εἶπαν

answering & Peter and the ambassadors said

Together the words answering and said mean that Peter and the other apostles responded to the high priest. Alternate translation: [Peter and the apostles responded]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Πέτρος καὶ οἱ ἀπόστολοι εἶπαν

Peter and the ambassadors said

Luke seems to mean implicitly that Peter said what follows on behalf of all of the apostles. Alternate translation: [Peter said on behalf of all of the apostles]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ἀνθρώποις

people

Peter is using the term men in a generic sense to mean “human beings.” Alternate translation: [human beings]
