OET (OET-LV) And it_became at the time to_be_being_fulfilled the days of_the ascension of_him, and he established his face, which to_be_going to Hierousalaʸm/(Yərūshālayim),

OET (OET-RV) It was now coming to the time when the events leading to his ascension would start happening, and Yeshua was completely set in his decision to head to Yerushalem.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 9:51–56: The people of a Samaritan village refused to receive Jesus

Even though the Samaritan people were partly Jewish (2 Kings 17:24–41), they worshiped God differently than the Jews did. Their main place of worship was on Mount Gerazim, while the Jews’ main place of worship was in Jerusalem (John 4:20). The Samaritans did not want Jews to travel through their district on the way to worship in Jerusalem. That is why they rejected Jesus and his disciples.

Some other examples of headings for this section are:

People From a Samaritan Village Reject Jesus (GW)

Samaritan Opposition (NIV)

9:51a

As the day of His ascension approached,

In Greek, this verse starts with the phrase “And it happened that.” Some English versions translate this clause. For example:

Now it happened that (NJB)

However, most English versions omit this clause. Luke used this clause to introduce a new event. You should introduce this event in a way that is natural in your language.

As the day…approached: The Greek clause that the BSB translates as the day…approached is more literally “the days were approaching” or “the days were being completed/fulfilled.” In this context the clause indicates that it was nearly time for Jesus to go back up to heaven. This clause also implies that God had already planned the number of days before that would happen.Quite a few scholars (including Fitzmyer, Alford, Bock, Godet, Plummer, Stein, Hendriksen, Marshall, and Nolland) understand this phrase to imply completion or fulfillment of a predetermined number of days according to God’s plan. Few English versions make this implication explicit. Some other ways to translate this clause are:

When the days were approaching (NASB)

Not long before it was time (CEV)

The time was coming closer (GW)

of His ascension: The Greek phrase that the BSB translates as of His ascension is literally “of his receiving up.” This probably refers to the time when God would take Jesus back to heaven. Other ways to translate this phrase are:

for his ascension (NASB)

for God to take him back to heaven

for him to ascend to heaven (NLT)

for him to be taken up to heaven (NIV)

See heaven in the Glossary.

9:51b

Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.

Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem: The Greek clause that the BSB translates as Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem is literally “he set his face to go to Jerusalem.” Several English versions translate the clause that way. It means that Jesus firmly decided to go to Jerusalem. It also implies here that he started out on the journey. Other ways to translate this clause are:

he was determined to go to Jerusalem (GW)

he firmly decided to start out for Jerusalem

The context shows that his disciples also went with Jesus on the journey. In some languages it may be necessary to make that explicit. If this is true in your language, try to keep the focus on Jesus. For example:

Jesus firmly/purposefully set out for Jerusalem, along with his disciples.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

ἐγένετο δὲ

˱it˲_became (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐγένετο Δέ ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τάς ἡμέρας τῆς ἀναλήμψεως αὐτοῦ καί αὐτός τό πρόσωπον ἐστήρισεν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ)

Luke uses this phrase to introduce a new event in the story. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐν τῷ συνπληροῦσθαι τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ἀναλήμψεως αὐτοῦ

at the_‹time› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐγένετο Δέ ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τάς ἡμέρας τῆς ἀναλήμψεως αὐτοῦ καί αὐτός τό πρόσωπον ἐστήρισεν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could use active verbal forms in place of these two passive forms, and in the second case you could state who would do the action. Alternate translation: [when it was almost time for God to take him up]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐν τῷ συνπληροῦσθαι τὰς ἡμέρας

at the_‹time› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐγένετο Δέ ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τάς ἡμέρας τῆς ἀναλήμψεως αὐτοῦ καί αὐτός τό πρόσωπον ἐστήρισεν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ)

Here Luke uses days to refer to a particular time. Alternate translation: [when it was almost time]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῆς ἀναλήμψεως αὐτοῦ

˱of˲_the ascension ˱of˲_him

The implication is that God would take Jesus back up to heaven, and the further implication is that this would be after Jesus died. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express one or both of those things explicitly. Alternate translation: [for God to take him up to heaven] or [for him to die and for God to take him back up to heaven]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τὸ πρόσωπον ἐστήρισεν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐγένετο Δέ ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τάς ἡμέρας τῆς ἀναλήμψεως αὐτοῦ καί αὐτός τό πρόσωπον ἐστήρισεν τοῦ πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ)

The phrase set his face is an idiom. Alternate translation: [he firmly decided]
