SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 7:10–24: Jesus went to the Feast in Jerusalem

After Jesus stayed in Galilee a while, he went up quietly by himself. The crowds there disagreed about whether Jesus was a good man. He began to teach the people gathered at the temple and the Jewish leaders were amazed at his teaching. Jesus explained that his teaching came from God. Then he made them angry by saying that none of them kept the law.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Jesus began to teach at the festival of Booths

Jesus’ teaching came from God

Paragraph 7:14–24

Jesus went up to the festival of Booths/Tabernacles in Jerusalem while it was happening. He began to teach in the temple. His teaching amazed the Jewish leaders because he never had a religious education like theirs. Jesus stated that his teaching was not his own but came directly from God. He said that the leaders were wrong to criticize him for healing people on the Sabbath. They themselves also worked on the Sabbath sometimes, when they did a circumcision ceremony.

7:16a

“My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied.

My teaching is not My own: This clause means “I am not teaching things that I invented myself.” Jesus was saying that the source of his teaching was not his own mind or thinking. In some languages it is more natural to translate the noun teaching as a verb. For example:

What I teach doesn’t come from me (GW)

The things I teach are not my own ideas.

7:16b

“It comes from Him who sent Me.

The Greek conjunction that the BSB does not translate here connects a negative statement (7:16a) to a positive statement (7:16b). The negative statement says what is not true, while the positive statement says what is true. This kind of sentence emphasizes the positive statement.

Languages have different ways to indicate this type of emphasis. For example:

You should translate this emphasis in the way that is most natural in your language.

It comes from Him who sent Me: This expression is a short way of saying “my teaching is from the one who sent me.” In some languages it may be natural to translate this as a complete clause or sentence. For example:

What I teach comes from the one who sent me. (CEV)

God is the one who sent Jesus to the world. In some languages it may be natural to make this explicit. For example:

it comes from God who sent me (NLT)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦ πέμψαντός με

˱of˲_the_‹one› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀπεκρίθη Οὖν αὐτοῖς Ἰησοῦς καί εἶπεν Ἡ ἐμή διδαχή οὐκ ἐστίν ἐμή ἀλλά τοῦ πέμψαντος μέ)

Here, the one having sent me refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in [4:34](../04/34.md).
