In this section, Jesus gave various instructions to the twelve apostles. In 10:5–15, he gave them some practical instructions for preaching the good news. In 10:16–33, he described the opposition that they would see when they went out. Lastly, in 10:34–42, he described the commitment required to be a disciple and the reward for being a disciple.
You may want to break this long section into several shorter sections. Here is an example:
Section 10:5–15 | The things the apostles should/must do when sent |
Section 10:16–33 | The difficulties the apostles will face |
Section 10:34–42 | The cost and reward of following Jesus |
Here are some other possible headings for this section:
Jesus gave directions/instructions to the twelve apostles for preaching the gospel
The Mission of the Twelve (GNT)
Instructions for the Twelve Apostles (CEV)
A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’
A person’s enemies will be the people who live in his own house.’
Your worst enemies will be in your own family. (CEV)
A person’s enemies will be members of his own family.’ (NCV)
The Greek of 10:36 begins with a conjunction that is often translated as “and.” However, some English versions like the BSB do not translate this conjunction. Because this verse is probably a summary of 10:35, translate the connection of 10:36 to 10:35 in a way that indicates this verse has the same general meaning as 10:35.
Here is one way to introduce this summary:
What I mean is
In some languages, no connecting word or phrase is necessary.
A man’s enemies will be: In some languages, it may be more natural to use “your” instead of “a man’s.” For example:
Your enemies will be (NLT)
the members of his own household: This phrase refers to the people who live in the man’s house. This would include any relative or servant.
Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:
those who live in his own house (JBP)
members of his own family (NCV)
in your own family (CEV)

τοῦ ἀνθρώπου & αὐτοῦ
˱of˲_the person & ˱of˲_him
Although the terms man and his are masculine, Jesus is using the words in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use phrases that make this clear. Alternate translation: [of a man or woman … his or her]
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
