This event happened during the 40 days that Jesus appeared to his followers after he had risen from the dead.
|
|
|
|
# General Information:

Here the word "he" refers to Jesus. Except where otherwise noted, the word "you" in the book of Acts is plural. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])

# When he was meeting together with them
|
|
|
|
"When Jesus was meeting together with his apostles"
|
|
|
|
# the promise of the Father
|
|
|
|
This is a reference to the Holy Spirit. AT: "the Holy Spirit, whom the Father promised to send" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
|
|
|
|
# about which, he said
|
|
|
|
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"
|
|
|
|
# John indeed baptized with water ... baptized in the Holy Spirit
|
|
|
|
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"
|
|
|
|
# you shall be baptized

This can be stated in active form. AT: "God will baptize you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
