OET (OET-LV)Others were_saying:

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 7:40–44: People disagreed about Jesus

The people disagreed about who Jesus was. Some thought that he might be the Messiah and others said that it was impossible because he was from Galilee.

Here are some other possible section headings:

People in the crowd disagreed about who Jesus was

People argued about Jesus

7:41a

Others declared, “This is the Christ.”

Others declared: This clause means “other people in the crowd.” These people were also among those who had heard Jesus’ words.

This is the Christ: The word Christ is a title. Jews used this title to refer to the person whom God appointed and promised to send as king and savior. The word Christ is the Greek translation of the Hebrew word “Messiah.” The two words have the same meaning.

See how you translated this term in 7:26c, 27b and 31b. See also Christ, Messiah in KBT.

7:41b

But still others asked, “How can the Christ come from Galilee?

But still others asked: The Greek expression that the BSB translates as But still others asked introduces a disagreement with the statement in the previous sentence, that Jesus was the Messiah. Some other people in the crowd disagreed with the suggestion that Jesus was the Messiah.

Here are other ways to translate this expression:

Still other people asked (GW)

But others argued (REB)

How can the Christ come from Galilee?: This is a rhetorical question. The people used it to say that the Messiah would surely not come from Galilee (the implied answer is “The Messiah does not come from Galilee”). They believed that the Messiah would not come from Galilee, and they knew Jesus was from Galilee.

There are at least three ways to translate this rhetorical question:

Translate this rhetorical question in a way that is natural in your language.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

μὴ γὰρ ἐκ τῆς Γαλιλαίας ὁ Χριστὸς ἔρχεται?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ἄλλοι ἔλεγον Οὗτος ἐστίν ὁ Χριστός οἱ Δέ ἔλεγον μή Γάρ ἐκ τῆς Γαλιλαίας ὁ Χριστός ἔρχεται)

These people are using the form of a question to add emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this type of question by translating these words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [Indeed, the Christ surely does not come from Galilee!]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

7:1-52 This chapter is another account of Jesus during a Jewish festival, the Festival of Shelters. Jesus used elements of the festival to reveal his true identity to his Jewish compatriots and to show that he had fulfilled the festival’s essential meaning (see 7:37-39; 8:12).
