TSNTyndale Study Notes:

15:21 The son gave his rehearsed speech. Some manuscripts add Please take me on as a hired servant. The lack of this sentence in the better manuscripts suggests that his father didn’t give him a chance to finish.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

εἶπεν δὲ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτῷ, Πάτερ, ἥμαρτον εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐνώπιόν σου; οὐκέτι εἰμὶ ἄξιος κληθῆναι υἱός σου

said and the son ˱to˲_him Father ˱I˲_sinned against ¬the heaven and before you no_longer ˱I˲_am worthy /to_be/_called /a/_son ˱of˲_you

If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that it is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “Then the son told his father that he had sinned against God and directly against him, and that he did not deserve to be called his son anymore”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / euphemism

τὸν οὐρανὸν

¬the heaven

In order to honor the commandment not to misuse God’s name, Jewish people often avoided saying the word “God” and used the word heaven instead. Alternate translation: “God”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐνώπιόν

before

The term before means “in the presence” of another person. The young man is making a distinction between the way he has sinned against heaven, by committing many sins, and before his father, by causing him personal shame and loss. Alternate translation: “directly against”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐκέτι εἰμὶ ἄξιος κληθῆναι υἱός σου

no_longer ˱I˲_am worthy /to_be/_called /a/_son ˱of˲_you

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who would do the action. Alternate translation: “I am no longer worthy for you to call me your son”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

κληθῆναι

/to_be/_called

This expression could also be an idiom that means “to be.” See how you translated this phrase in 1:32, 1:76, and 2:23. Alternate translation: “to be”
