SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 18:35–43: Jesus healed a blind beggar

As Jesus and his disciples continued their journey to Jerusalem, they came to Jericho. A blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. He asked Jesus to make him able to see again. Luke does not mention the beggar’s name, but Mark mentions that his name was Bartimaeus. Jesus healed him and told him that the reason he could now see was because he believed in Jesus.

It is good to translate this section before you decide on a heading for it. Some other possible headings for this section are:

Jesus Heals a Blind Man (NCV)

Jesus gives sight to a blind man

There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 9:27–31, 20:29–34 and Mark 10:46–52.

18:37

“Jesus of Nazareth is passing by,” they told him.

Some of the people answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth is walking/passing by.”
They told him that Jesus from the town of Nazareth was coming.

“Jesus of Nazareth is passing by,” they told him: Some people in the crowd answered the blind man’s question. Their answer gave the reason why all the people were passing. It implies that the people were following Jesus of Nazareth. The answer also implies that the blind man knew that Jesus was a well-known teacher and that crowds often followed him. Verses 38 and 39 show that the blind man did know about him.

This direct quote can also be expressed as indirect speech. For example:

they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was going/walking by

Jesus of Nazareth: The phrase Jesus of Nazareth means “the man named Jesus from the town of Nazareth.”

passing by: The people in the crowd told the beggar that Jesus was “walking by” or “going by” where he was sitting.

they told him: The BSB has placed the phrase they told him after what the people said. In the Greek text, this phrase comes before what they said. Place it wherever it is natural in your language.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

Note 2 topic: translate-names

Ἰησοῦς ὁ Ναζωραῖος

Jesus the Nazarene

The people call Jesus the Nazarene because he was from the town of Nazareth in Galilee. Alternate translation: [Jesus from the town of Nazareth]
