24:1-12 Women were the first to find the tomb empty and to hear the announcement of the resurrection. This is strong evidence for the historicity of the resurrection accounts. In first-century Judaism, women were not regarded as reliable witnesses, so the church would never have created stories in which women discovered the empty tomb.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐμφόβων & γενομένων αὐτῶν & εἶπαν πρὸς αὐτάς
frightened & /having/_become them & ˱they˲_said to them
The first instance of they refers to the women, while the second instance refers to the men. Alternate translation: “as the women became terrified … the men said to them”
Note 2 topic: translate-symaction
κλινουσῶν τὰ πρόσωπα εἰς τὴν γῆν
bowing their faces to the ground
Looking down at the ground was a gesture of respect towards these men. Alternate translation: “respectfully lowered their gaze”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / verbs
εἶπαν πρὸς αὐτάς
˱they˲_said to them
If your language uses dual forms for verbs, use that form here, since two men are speaking.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
τί ζητεῖτε τὸν ζῶντα μετὰ τῶν νεκρῶν?
why ˱you_all˲_/are/_seeking the_‹one› living with the dead
The men do not expect the women to tell them why they are looking for a living person in a tomb. Rather, the men are using the question form to make an announcement. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate their words as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “You should not be looking for Jesus here, because he is no longer dead, he is alive again!”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
τὸν ζῶντα μετὰ τῶν νεκρῶν
the_‹one› living with the dead
The men are using the adjectives living and dead as nouns to refer to groups of people. (The term living is actually a participle that functions here as an adjective.) Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate these with equivalent phrases. Alternate translation: “someone who is alive among the bodies of people who have died”
