OET interlinear HEB 3:5

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo

Μωϋσῆς μὲν πιστὸς ἐν ὅλῳ τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, ὡς θεράπων

Moses on_one_hand faithful in all the house ˱of˲_him as /a/_server

Here, just as in 3:2, the author uses words that are very similar to the Greek translation of Numbers 12:7. It is possible that he is thinking of that verse or directly referencing it. However, he does not introduce the words as a quotation or indicate that he is referring to another text. So, you should not include any quotation information in your translation. If you wish to refer to Numbers 12:7, you could use a footnote to do so.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν ὅλῳ τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ

in all the house ˱of˲_him

Here, the word house refers to a group of people, in this case the Israelites. See how you translated house in Hebrews 3:2. Alternate translation: “among God’s entire tribe” or “in his entire clan”

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

αὐτοῦ

˱of˲_him

Here, the word his refers to God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make explicit that the pronoun refers to God. Alternate translation: “God’s”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῶν λαληθησομένων

˱of˲_the_‹things› /going_to/_speak

Here the author does not clarify what exactly is spoken. He may be referring: (1) specifically to what God the Father says about Jesus. Alternate translation: “of the things that would be spoken about Jesus in the future” (2) generally to the good news about Jesus. Alternate translation: “of the good news that would be spoken in the future”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

λαληθησομένων

/going_to/_speak

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on the words that are spoken rather than on the person doing the speaking. If you must state who did the action, the author implies that God did it. Alternate translation: “God would speak in the future”
