# General Information:
The word "we" refers to Ananias, certain elders, and Tertullus. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-exclusive]])
# this man to be a pest
Here "pest" is a metaphor for a person who causes trouble. Alternate translation: "this man to be a trouble maker" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
# all the Jews throughout the world
The word "all" here is probably an exaggeration used to strengthen their accusation against Paul. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-hyperbole]])
# He is a leader of the Nazarene sect
The phrase "Nazarene sect" is another name for the Christians. Alternate translation: "He also leads the entire group whom people call the followers of the Nazarene" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
# sect
This is a smaller group of people within a larger group group. Tertullus considers the Christians to be a small group within Judaism.
