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) Although Peter is addressing the entire group of people, here the word "us" refers only to the apostles. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-exclusive)

Connecting Statement:

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