Bahasa Indonesia - Translation Notes - New Testament - Acts 1:1-26

Acts 01 General Notes

Structure and formatting

This chapter records an event, commonly known as the "Ascension," when Jesus returns to heaven after his resurrection. He will not come back until he returns at his "second coming." (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/heaven]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/resurrection]])

Following other translations, the UDB has chosen to set the salutation ("Dear Theophilus") apart. This follows the style of a letter, but it may be approached differently to follow a similar practice in the translator's culture.

Some translations indent quotations from the Old Testament. The ULB does this with the two quotes from Psalms in 1:20.

Special concepts in this chapter

The kingdom of God

Some scholars believe that Jesus explained to the disciples why the kingdom of God did not come during his life. Others believe that a new phase of the kingdom of God has just begun.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

The twelve disciples

The following are the list of the twelve disciples: In Matthew: Simon (Peter), Andrew, James son of Zebedee, John son of Zebedee, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddeus, Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot.

In Mark: Simon (Peter), Andrew, James the son of Zebedee, and John the son of Zebedee (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder), Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot.

In Luke: Simon (Peter), Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James, the son of Alphaeus, Simon, who was called the Zealot, Judas, the son of James, and Judas Iscariot.

It is probable that Thaddaeus and Jude, the son of James, are two names of the same person.

Changes in tense

It may be difficult to translate the phrase, "Jesus began to do and to teach" because it changes the tense or timing of events within the same sentence (Acts 1:1). It may be necessary to make all these actions agree with each other in tense. An alternative translation could be, "Jesus did and taught."

Akeldama

This is a phrase in Hebrew or Aramaic. Luke transliterates this word by writing it with Greek letters, and then he explains the meaning. Translators are encouraged to transliterate it using the letters of the target language and then explain the meaning.

1 Dalam buku yang aku tulis sebelumnya , Teofilus, tentang semua yang Yesus mulai lakukan dan ajarkan,

The former book I wrote

The former book is the Gospel of Luke.

Theophilus

Luke wrote this book to a man named Theophilus. Some translations follow their own culture's way of addressing a letter and write "Dear Theophilus" at the beginning of the sentence. Theophilus means "friend of God" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names]])

2 sampai hari Ia terangkat naik. Ini terjadi setelah Ia memberikan perintah melalui Roh Kudus kepada rasul-rasul yang telah dipilihNya.

until the day that he was taken up

This refers to Jesus' ascension into heaven. AT: "until the day on which God took him up to heaven" or "until the day that he ascended into heaven" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])

commands through the Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit led Jesus to instruct his apostles on certain things.

If you translated the previous phrase to include the words "Holy Spirit," you can change the word "which" to "whom." AT: "about whom Jesus said"

Jesus contrasts how John baptized people in water with how God would baptize believers in the Holy Spirit.

John indeed baptized with water

"John indeed baptized people with water"

13 Ketika mereka tiba, mereka naik ke ruang atas, tempat mereka tinggal. Mereka adalah Petrus, Yohanes, Yakobus, Andreas, Filipus, Tomas, Bartolomeus, Matius, Yakobus putra Alfeus, Simon orang Zelot, dan Yudas putra Yakobus.

This means that the disciples prayed together regularly and frequently.

15 Pada hari-hari itu berdirilah Petrus di tengah-tengah para saudara, sekitar seratus dua puluh orang, dan berkata,

In those days

by the mouth of David

The word "mouth" refers to the words that David wrote. AT: "through the words of David" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])

17 Karena ia dahulu adalah salah satu dari antara kita dan telah menerima bagian dari manfaat pelayanan ini."

Connecting Statement:

In verse 17 Peter continues his speech to the believers that he began in Acts 1:16.

General Information:

In verses 18-19 the author tells the reader background information about how Judas died and what people called the field where he died. This is not part of Peter's speech. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-background]])

18 (Sekarang orang ini membeli sebidang tanah dengan hasil yang ia dapatkan dari kejahatannya, dan di situlah ia jatuh dengan kepalanya terlebih dahulu, dan tubuhnya terbelah, serta seluruh isi perutnya terhambur keluar.

Now this man

The words "this man" refers to Judas Iscariot.

the earnings he received for his wickedness

there he fell headfirst, and his body burst open, and all his intestines poured out

This suggests that Judas fell from a high place, rather than just falling down. The fall was severe enough to cause his body to burst open. Other passages of scripture mention that he hanged himself. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

19 Semua yang hidup di Yerusalem telah mendengar tentang hal ini, sebab itulah mereka menyebut ladang itu dalam bahasa mereka "Hakal-Dama," yaitu, "Tanah Darah.")

Field of Blood

When the people living in Jerusalem heard of the way in which Judas died, they renamed the field.

Connecting Statement:

Peter continues his speech to the believers that he began in Acts 1:16.

General Information:

Based on the situation with Judas that Peter just recounted, he recalls two Psalms of David that relate to the incident. The quote ends at the end of this verse.

This can be stated in active form. AT: "For David wrote in the Book of Psalms" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])

Let his field be made desolate, and do not let even one person live there

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

Let his field be made desolate

Possible meanings are 1) that the word "field" refers to the field where Judas died or 2) that the word "field" refers to Judas's dwelling place and is a metaphor for his family line. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
