Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
δὲ
and
Here, the word But introduces the next topic that the Sadducees want to talk about. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next topic, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: “Now”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo
ἦσαν & παρ’ ἡμῖν ἑπτὰ ἀδελφοί; καὶ ὁ πρῶτος
˱they˲_were & among us seven brothers and the first
Here the Sadducees use an imaginary situation to set up a question they want to ask Jesus. Use a natural method in your language for introducing an imaginary situation. Alternate translation: “imagine a family with seven brothers. The first”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
ὁ πρῶτος
the first
The Sadducees are using the number first as a noun to mean the first brother. Your language may use numbers in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “the first brother”
Note 4 topic: translate-ordinal
ὁ πρῶτος
the first
If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you can use a cardinal number here. Alternate translation: “brother number one”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καὶ μὴ ἔχων σπέρμα, ἀφῆκεν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ
and and not having seed left the wife ˱of˲_him ˱to˲_the brother ˱of˲_him
Here the Sadducees are indicating that the dead man’s brother married the widow, as Moses commanded. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “And since he did not have seed, his brother married his wife to produce seed for him”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
σπέρμα
seed
Here, the Sadducees are speaking of offspring as if they were seed. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “offspring”
