SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 14:25–35: A disciple of Jesus must be ready to suffer for him

In the previous section, Jesus warned people about the danger of rejecting God’s invitation to join his kingdom. In this section he told them two parables to advise them that they should not underestimate the suffering and difficulties which they would face if they decided to truly be his disciples.

Some other possible headings for this section are:

The Cost of Being a Disciple (NIV)

Do not underestimate the hardship of being a disciple

14:27

And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.

And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple: If you reordered 14:26 as shown in the preceding General Comment, you may also want to reorder 14:27. For example:

And no one can be my disciple unless he carries his cross and follows me.

carry his cross: The phrase carry his cross refers to the way that Roman soldiers executed criminals. They forced a condemned criminal to pick up a large wooden cross. He had to carry it to the place where he would be put to death. Then the soldiers nailed him on the cross to die.

When Jesus used this phrase, he knew that the Romans would soon force him to carry a literal cross. But in this context, he used the phrase figuratively. Jesus meant that anyone who wanted to become his disciple had to be willing to suffer and die in order to obey him.

Some ways to translate the phrase carry his cross are:

If you follow this option, consider adding a footnote that gives Jesus’ literal words.

See also the note on 9:23d, where a similar phrase occurs. Be aware that in that verse, the word “daily” may make a slight difference in the meaning.

cross: A cross refers to two large wooden boards or beams that were attached to each other. Roman soldiers used crosses to kill criminals. They nailed or tied a criminal to these wooden beams, then set them upright. They did this in order to cause the criminal to die slowly and painfully.

The word cross comes from the fact that the beams were crossed and attached. This made the shape of a + or ✝ (or sometimes a T).

In many languages there may be no word for cross. If that is true in your language, you may need to use a descriptive phrase. For example:

board/wood of death

crossed-beam(s) of death

a tree for killing people

a stake/plank to which they fasten/nail someone to kill him

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

ὅστις οὐ βαστάζει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μου, οὐ δύναται εἶναί μου μαθητής

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὅστις οὒ βαστάζει τόν σταυρόν αὐτοῦ καί ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μού οὒ δύναται εἶναι μού μαθητής)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this double negative as a positive statement. Alternate translation: [Whoever wants to be my disciple must carry his cross and follow me]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐ βαστάζει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὅστις οὒ βαστάζει τόν σταυρόν αὐτοῦ καί ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μού οὒ δύναται εἶναι μού μαθητής)

Jesus assumes that the crowds will know that the Romans executed some criminals by nailing them to a wooden beam with crossbar that was set upright so that the criminals would slowly suffocate. Jesus assumes that the crowds will also know that the Romans made these criminals carry these wooden crosses through the streets to the place where they were going to be executed. Alternate translation: [does not carry the wooden cross on which he will be executed]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

οὐ βαστάζει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὅστις οὒ βαστάζει τόν σταυρόν αὐτοῦ καί ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μού οὒ δύναται εἶναι μού μαθητής)

Jesus uses the phrase carry his cross, referring to this practice of execution, to say that his disciples must be people who have given up their lives to God and who are willing to suffer. Alternate translation: [does not surrender his life to God and be willing to suffer]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μου

˓is˒_coming after (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὅστις οὒ βαστάζει τόν σταυρόν αὐτοῦ καί ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μού οὒ δύναται εἶναι μού μαθητής)

This is an idiom. Alternate translation: [follow my example] or [obey me]
