SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 7:45–52: The Jewish leaders did not believe in Jesus

The temple police were amazed at Jesus’ teaching and did not arrest him. The council members were not pleased and said that none of the Jewish leaders believed in him. However, one of the council members, Nicodemus, defended Jesus.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The Jewish leaders argued that people should not believe in Jesus

One Jewish leader defended Jesus

Paragraph 7:45–49

The temple police returned to the council without Jesus. The council members were not pleased and wanted to know why they did not arrest Jesus. The guards told them that what Jesus said was so wonderful they could not arrest him.

7:46

“Never has anyone spoken like this man!” the officers answered.

The temple police answered, “No one ever spoke the way Jesus does.”
The guards told them that no one ever spoke with such wisdom/authority as Jesus.

Never has anyone spoken like this man!: This clause explains why the temple police did not arrest Jesus. They said that he spoke in a different way than everyone else. He spoke more wisely and with greater authority than anyone else they had heard (see, for example, Mark 1:22). They thought that there was something special about him.

Here are other ways to translate this clause:

No one ever spoke the way this man does. (NIV)

No one ever spoke as this man speaks. (REB)

In some languages it may be necessary to make explicit in what way Jesus spoke that was different from others. For example:

The words he says are greater than the words of any other person who has ever spoken! (NCV)

“We have never heard anyone say such amazing things!” (ERV)
