7:1-52 This chapter is another account of Jesus during a Jewish festival, the Festival of Shelters. Jesus used elements of the festival to reveal his true identity to his Jewish compatriots and to show that he had fulfilled the festival’s essential meaning (see 7:37-39; 8:12).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
ζητεῖ αὐτὸς
/is/_seeking himself
Here, Jesus’ brothers use the reflexive pronoun himself in order to emphasize their belief that Jesus wants to make himself famous. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this emphasis. Alternate translation: “seeks for his own benefit”
ζητεῖ αὐτὸς ἐν παρρησίᾳ εἶναι
/is/_seeking himself in public to_be
Alternate translation: “seeks publicity for himself” or “seeks public attention”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact
εἰ ταῦτα ποιεῖς
if these_‹things› ˱you˲_/are/_doing
John records Jesus’ brothers speaking as if this were a hypothetical possibility, but they mean that it is actually true. Although they didn’t believe that Jesus was the Messiah at this time, they did not deny that he was doing miracles. If your language does not state something as a condition if it is certain or true, and if your readers might think that what the brothers are saying is not certain, then you could translate his words as an affirmative statement. Alternate translation: “Since you do these things”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τῷ κόσμῳ
˱to˲_the world
Here, the world is used figurative to refer to all of the people in the world. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “to all people”
