TSNTyndale Study Notes:

8:22-26 Earlier, Jesus and the disciples set out unsuccessfully for Bethsaida (6:45); here, they arrive, and Jesus heals a blind man. Only Mark has this two-part healing; it might connect with the opening of the disciples’ spiritual eyes in the next account (8:27-38).
• John 1:44 identifies Bethsaida as the home of Peter, Andrew, James, and John (see also John 12:21). This small fishing village, although technically part of Gaulanitis, was generally considered part of Galilee (John 12:21). It was relocated and given status as a city by Philip the Tetrarch (Josephus, Antiquities 18.2.1).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀναβλέψας

/having/_looked_up

Here, the word translated having looked up could mean that: (1) the man raised his head and looked around him. Alternate translation: “having looked at what was around him” (2) the man began to be able to see again. Alternate translation: “having begun to see again”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

τοὺς ἀνθρώπους

the people

Although the term men is masculine, the man is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “humans”

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

ὅτι

because

Here, the word for could introduce: (1) a further explanation of what the man saw. Alternate translation: “and more specifically,” or “and in fact” (2) a reason why the man knew that he was seeing men. Alternate translation: “since” or “which I know because”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

ὡς δένδρα ὁρῶ περιπατοῦντας

as trees ˱I˲_/am/_seeing_‹them› walking

The man is saying that the people he sees look like trees. This means that he cannot see them clearly. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “I see them walking, but I cannot see them clearly. They look like trees”
