TSNTyndale Study Notes:

18:17 receive the Kingdom of God like a child: Entrance into the Kingdom of God requires childlike faith and dependence on God.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

ἀμὴν, λέγω ὑμῖν, ὃς ἂν

truly ˱I˲_/am/_saying ˱to˲_you_all whoever ¬wishfully

Jesus says this to emphasize what he is about to say. Alternate translation: “I can assure you that whoever”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

μὴ δέξηται τὴν Βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ

not /may/_receive the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God

See how you decided to translate the phrase the kingdom of God in 4:43. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract noun kingdom with a verb such as “rule.” Alternate translation: “does not let God rule over him”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

ὡς παιδίον

as /a/_little_child

If it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain the basis of this comparison. Alternate translation: “with trust and humility as a child”

οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθῃ εἰς αὐτήν

by_no_means not /may/_come_in into it

Alternate translation: “will not let God rule over him at all”
