TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:18 Mark gives the moral-religious reason for the imprisonment and execution of John the Baptist. Josephus refers to the political reason (fear that John’s great popularity might start a revolution; Josephus, Antiquities 18.5.2). Similarly, the religious reasons for Jesus’ condemnation (Mark 14:63-64) became political when he was brought before Pontius Pilate (15:2; Luke 23:2-3).
• It is against God’s law: Not only was the relationship adulterous (Lev 20:10), but it violated the further law against marrying a brother’s wife (Lev 18:16; 20:21).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

γὰρ

for

Here, the word For introduces a reason why Herod put John in prison. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a reason, or you could leave For untranslated. Alternate translation: “He did that because”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

τῷ Ἡρῴδῃ, ὅτι οὐκ ἔξεστίν σοι ἔχειν τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου

¬the ˱to˲_Herod ¬that not ˱it˲_/is/_permitting ˱for˲_you /to_be/_having the wife ˱of˲_the brother ˱of˲_you

It may be more natural in your language to have an indirect quotation here. Alternate translation: “to Herod that it was not lawful for him to have the wife of his brother”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

σοι & σου

˱for˲_you & ˱of˲_you

Because John is speaking to Herod, the words you and your are singular.

Note 4 topic: translate-kinship

ἀδελφοῦ σου

brother ˱of˲_you

See how you translated brother in 6:17. Alternate translation: “of your older brother”
