SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 20:24–29: Jesus appeared to Thomas

Thomas was not in the room when Jesus showed himself to the other disciples. He did not believe the other disciples when they said that Jesus rose from the dead. He wanted to see himself. A week later Jesus showed himself to his disciples again and Thomas was there. He told Thomas to touch the wounds on his body. That way he would know that it was Jesus and believe that he had risen from the dead. When Thomas saw Jesus’ wounds, he realized that he was his Lord and his God.

Here are other possible section headings:

Jesus invited Thomas to touch his wounds

Thomas saw Jesus and believed

Thomas saw Jesus and realized that he was God

20:28

Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!”

Thomas replied, “You are my Lord and my God!” (CEV)
And Thomas said to him, “You^(sing) are my Lord and my God!”

Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!”: This sentence indicates that Thomas stopped doubting and believed that Jesus was both his Lord and his God. Here are other ways to translate this verse:

Tomas said, “You^(sing) are my Lord and my God.” (Kankanaey Back Translation)

Tomas replied like this, “You are my Lord and you are my God.” (Yakan Back Translation)

My Lord: The Greek word that the BSB translates as Lord means “master” or “one who has authority over others.” The Jews also used this same title to refer to God. Here Thomas declared that Jesus was his master and God. See the note at 20:13b, where Mary Magdalene calls Jesus “my Lord,” and see how you translated the phrase there. For example:

my Master

the one I obey/serve

my God: This phrase is a way to address the God whom one believes in, serves, and worships. Thomas was saying that Jesus was the God of Israel. See how you translated this phrase in 20:17.

In some languages it may be natural to use a verb to express this idea. For example:

the God whom I worship
