Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
οὖν
therefore
Therefore indicates that this verse states the result of what had happened in the previous verses. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: “As a result of Jesus saying these things”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐζήτουν
˱they˲_/were/_seeking
Here, they could refer to: (1) the Jewish leaders. Alternate translation: “the Jewish authorities were seeking” (2) the Jerusalemites. Alternate translation: “the people dwelling in Jerusalem were seeking”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
οὐδεὶς ἐπέβαλεν ἐπ’ αὐτὸν τὴν χεῖρα
no_one laid_on on him his hand
To lay a hand on someone is an idiom which means to grab someone or hold onto someone. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent idiom or use plain language. Alternate translation: “no one grabbed him”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
οὔπω ἐληλύθει ἡ ὥρα αὐτοῦ
not_yet /had/_come the hour ˱of˲_him
Here, the word hour is used to refer to the time God had planned for Jesus to be arrested and killed. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the right time to arrest him had not yet come”
7:30 Jesus’ opponents failed to arrest him because in God’s sovereign plan, his time, when he would be glorified on the cross, had not yet come (see study note on 12:23; see also 10:17-18; 18:6-8). All four arrest scenes in 7:1–8:59 stress that Jesus was in control, not the Jewish leaders.
OET (OET-LV) Therefore they_were_seeking to_arrest him, but no_one laid_on his hand on him, because the hour of_him had_ not_yet _come.
OET (OET-RV) So now they really want to arrest him, but no one touched him because it was not yet the proper time.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
