Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῇ & μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων
˱on˲_the & first_‹day› ˱of˲_the week
John uses first to imply the first day of the week. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [on the first day of the week]
Note 2 topic: translate-ordinal
τῇ & μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων
˱on˲_the & first_‹day› ˱of˲_the week
Here John is actually using a cardinal number, “one,” to mean first. If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you can also use a cardinal number here in your translation. Alternate translation: [on day one of the week]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
ἔρχεται & βλέπει
/is/_coming & /is/_seeing
Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
βλέπει τὸν λίθον ἠρμένον
/is/_seeing the stone /having_been/_taken_away
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [sees that someone had rolled away the stone]
20:1 As a devoted follower of Jesus (see Matt 27:55-56; Luke 8:1-3), Mary Magdalene arrived at the tomb to help complete Jesus’ burial (see John 19:42).
• Many Judean tombs were sealed with a rolling stone.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
