Android compiles by default with Java 7 but your project might be using some Java 8 features. If you recently switched from Oracle JDK to Open JDK, make sure you are using Java 8. In your terminal, if you run java -version, the output should be something like:

openjdk version "1.8.0_222"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 1.8.0_222-b10)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 25.222-b10, mixed mode)
