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 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.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οἱ ἀδελφοὶ
the brothers
Luke is using the term brothers to mean people who share the same faith. Alternate translation: [his fellow believers]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
κατήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς Καισάρειαν
brought_down him to Caesarea
Luke uses the phrase brought him down because that was the customary way of speaking about traveling from Jerusalem, since that city is up on a mountain. Caesarea is lower in elevation. Alternate translation: [made sure he got safely to Caesarea]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐξαπέστειλαν αὐτὸν
˱they˲_sent_away him
Caesarea was a seaport, and the believers probably sent Saul to Tarsus by ship. Alternate translation: [sent him away by ship]
