OET interlinear MAT 12:46

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἰδοὺ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔτι Αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος τοῖς ὄχλοις ἰδού ἡ μήτηρ καί οἱ ἀδελφοί αὐτοῦ εἱστήκεισαν ἔξω ζητοῦντες αὐτῷ λαλῆσαι)

The word behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express behold with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could draw the audience’s attention in another way. Alternate translation: [take note] or [look]

Note 2 topic: translate-kinship

οἱ ἀδελφοὶ

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔτι Αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος τοῖς ὄχλοις ἰδού ἡ μήτηρ καί οἱ ἀδελφοί αὐτοῦ εἱστήκεισαν ἔξω ζητοῦντες αὐτῷ λαλῆσαι)

These were Jesus' younger brothers. They were sons of Mary and Joseph. Since the Father of Jesus was God, and their father was Joseph, they were actually his half-brothers. That detail is not normally translated, but if your language has a specific word for “younger brother,” you could use it here.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἵστήκεισαν ἔξω

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔτι Αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος τοῖς ὄχλοις ἰδού ἡ μήτηρ καί οἱ ἀδελφοί αὐτοῦ εἱστήκεισαν ἔξω ζητοῦντες αὐτῷ λαλῆσαι)

Matthew implies that Jesus’ mother and brothers arrived and then stood outside wherever Jesus was. Since [13:1](../13/01.md) describes Jesus leaving a house, he may have been in a house while he was teaching. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make some or all of this information more explicit. Alternate translation: [had come and stood outside the house] or [had arrived outside the place where he was teaching]
