SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 10:5–42: Jesus instructed the twelve apostles

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)

10:6

Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel: The phrase lost sheep of Israel is a metaphor. In this metaphor, Jesus compared the nation of Israel to lost sheep.

They were lost in the sense that they had strayed from their shepherd (God).

Here are some other ways to translate this metaphor:

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πορεύεσθε δέ μᾶλλον πρός τά πρόβατα τά ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ)

The word But introduces a contrast with what Jesus tells the disciples not to do in the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces this kind of contrast, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: [Rather,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πορεύεσθε δέ μᾶλλον πρός τά πρόβατα τά ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ)

Jesus could be using the possessive form to describe: (1) all of the house of Israel as lost sheep. Alternate translation: [the lost sheep, who are the house of Israel]; (2) some of the house of Israel as lost sheep. Alternate translation: [the lost sheep among the house of Israel]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: πορεύεσθε δέ μᾶλλον πρός τά πρόβατα τά ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ)

Jesus speaks of his fellow Jewish people as if they were lost sheep. He means that they are not following God and need help. This is an important metaphor in the Bible, so you could preserve the figure of speech or use simile form. Alternate translation: [the house of Israel, who are like lost sheep] or [the house of Israel, who are far away from God, like lost sheep]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

οἴκου Ἰσραήλ

˱of˲_˓the˒_house ˱of˲_Israel

Matthew refers to a people group or nation as if it were a house. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [of the nation of Israel] or [of the Israelites]
