SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 19:1–10: Zacchaeus the tax collector began to follow Jesus

In the preceding section Jesus was approaching Jericho. In this section he entered Jericho and met a tax collector named Zacchaeus.

The Jews thought that the tax collectors were more sinful than other people. Most tax collectors cheated their own Jewish people by charging them more money than they actually owed. The tax collectors also worked with government officials who were not Jews, so the Jews assumed that tax collectors were often ritually unclean. While they were ritually unclean, they were not able to enter the temple or synagogue to worship God publicly. If another Jew entered a tax collector’s house or ate with him while he was unclean, that Jew also would become unclean.

The city of Jericho, where Zacchaeus worked, was a busy trading center. People were required to pay taxes on things that they sold. A chief tax collector like Zacchaeus could easily become rich through collecting taxes there.Keener (p. 240) says: “Being a border city, Jericho had a customs station. Because it was also one of the wealthiest cities of Palestine, in the most fertile part of Judea and boasting a Herodian palace, other tax income would also be extensive. The ‘chief’ tax gatherer would be the one who contracted for sales and customs taxes and hired collectors under him. Given this role, Zacchaeus could have become rich without cheating; but it seems that he had cheated anyway (19:8).” However, it was often difficult for people to pay these taxes, and high taxes caused many of them to remain poor. That may have been a reason why Zacchaeus promised Jesus that he would give half of his possessions to poor people (19:8).

You may want to include footnotes in your translation to help readers understand this background information. Suggested footnotes are given at 19:2b, Paragraph 19:5–7, and 19:7b.

Jesus was a Jew, but he went to Zacchaeus’ house and ate a meal with him. During that time, Zacchaeus repented of his sins and received salvation.

Other examples of headings for this section are:

Jesus and Zacchaeus (GNT)

Jesus went to Zacchaeus’ house

Jesus ate with Zacchaeus the tax collector

Only the Gospel of Luke tells about this event. The other gospels do not mention it.

19:1

Then Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.

Then: This verse begins a new section. The events in this section probably happened soon after the events in the preceding section. In some languages it may be helpful to introduce this story with a time word or phrase. The BSB does that by translating the Greek conjunction at the start of the verse as Then. Some other ways to do this in English are:

Soon after that

After that

Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through: Jesus went through Jericho on his way to Jerusalem. The Greek verb that the BSB translates as was passing through indicates that Jesus had begun to walk through Jericho but he had not left the city yet. Here are some other ways to translate was passing through in this context:

Jesus was going through Jericho… (CEV)

Entering Jericho he made his way through the city. (REB)

Jesus went into Jericho and had not walked out yet.

Jesus: Since this is a new section, the BSB uses Jesus’ name to refer to him. The name also distinguishes Jesus from the blind man, who was the subject in 18:43. The Greek text has “he.” The RSV and several other English versions use this pronoun rather than the name “Jesus.” Refer to Jesus here in a natural way in your language.

Jesus was still traveling with his disciples and a crowd of people. In some languages it may be necessary to include that information here. For example:

And Jesus and company arrivedWestern Bukidnon Manobo back translation on TW.

Jesus and his disciples/followers

Jericho: Jericho was the name of a city that was northeast of Jerusalem. For more information, see the note in 18:35a.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-background

καὶ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἰσελθών διήρχετο τήν Ἰεριχώ)

Luke uses the word And to begin relating a new event by introducing background information that will help readers understand what happens. Alternate translation: [Now]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

19:1-10 The story of Zacchaeus is a fitting climax to Jesus’ ministry to the outcasts of Israel on his journey to Jerusalem (9:51–19:44). The final verse of the episode (19:10) is often viewed as the theme verse of Luke’s Gospel.
