# why has Satan filled your heart to lie ... land?
|
|
|
|

|

# Satan filled your heart
|
|
|
|
Here the word "heart" is a metonym for the will and emotions. The phrase "Satan filled your heart" is a metaphor. Possible meanings of the metaphor are 1) "Satan completely controlled you" or 2) "Satan convinced you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the price
|
|
|
|
This implies that Ananias had told the apostles that he was giving the entire amount that he had received from selling his land. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
|

|
# While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own ... control?
|
|
|
|
Peter uses this question to rebuke Ananias. AT: "While it remained unsold, it was your own ... control." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
|
|
|
|
# While it remained unsold
|
|
|
|
"While you had not sold it"
|
|
|
|
# after it was sold, was it not in your control?
|
|
|
|
Peter uses this question to rebuke Ananias. AT: "after it was sold, you had control over the money that you received." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
|
|
|
|
# after it was sold
|
|
|
|
This can be stated in active form. AT: "after you sold it" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
|
|
|
|
# How is it that you thought of this thing in your heart?
|
|
|
|
Peter used this question to rebuke Ananias. Here the word "heart" refers to the will and emotions. AT: "You should not have thought of doing this thing" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
|
|
|
|
# fell down and breathed his last
|
|
|
|
Here "breathed his last" means "breathed his final breath" and is a polite way of saying that he died. Ananias fell down because he died; he did not die because he fell down. AT: "died and fell to the ground" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-euphemism]])
