SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 15:1–20: The deeds that make someone unclean in God’s eyes

Over the years, Jewish religious leaders added many oral rules to God’s written laws. The Pharisees and teachers of the law considered these oral rules (also called traditions) to be as important as God’s written laws. One of their rules was that a person must wash his hands a certain way before he ate food. If a Jew did not follow this rule before he ate, they considered him ceremonially “unclean.” This meant that they did not allow him to worship God in public for a certain amount of time. Jesus made it clear that there was something far more important than how a person washed his hands. The important thing was the condition of his heart.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus Challenges the Pharisees’ Traditions (GW)

Jesus Teaches about Inner Purity/Cleanliness

There are parallel passages for this section in Mark 7:1–23 and Luke 11:37–39.

15:1a

Then some Pharisees and scribes

Then: The Greek word that the BSB translates as Then indicates that the events of 15:1–20 came after the events of 14:22–36. The Greek text does not indicate how much time passed between these two events. These events could have happened the same day, or there could have been several days between them.

Here are some other ways to translate this word:

After that

Later

some: The word some is not in the Greek text but the BSB and some other English versions (such as the NIV and GNT) add the word “some” to indicate that some, but not all, Pharisees came to Jesus.

Pharisees: The word Pharisees refers to men who were members of a particular Jewish religious group. The Pharisees believed that it was necessary to strictly obey all the laws of the Old Testament. It was also very important to them to carefully obey many other religious laws that they added. They also said that other people must obey these laws.

Here are some ways to translate Pharisees:

The word Pharisees first occurs in 3:7a.

scribes: The Greek word that the BSB translates as scribes refers to men who studied, interpreted, and taught the law of Moses. These men were called scribes because their original work was to copy the laws of Moses by hand. In New Testament times, this was no longer their main task.

Here are some ways to translate this term:

teachers of the Law of Moses (CEV)

teachers of religious law (NLT)

teachers of the law (NIV)

experts in the law

The word scribe first occurs in 2:4a.

15:1b

came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,

came to Jesus from Jerusalem: In some languages, it may be more natural to add another verb here. For example:

came from Jerusalem and went to Jesus

left/exited Jerusalem and came to Jesus

and asked: The Greek word that the BSB translates as asked introduces a rhetorical question. For that reason, several English versions (such as the BSB) translate this word as asked.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

τότε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Τότε προσέρχονται τῷ Ἰησοῦ ἀπό Ἱεροσολύμων Φαρισαῖοι καί γραμματεῖς λέγοντες)

Here, the word Then introduces a new event that took place sometime after the previous event, probably relatively soon after. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event. Alternate translation: [One day,] or [Sometime later,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

προσέρχονται

˓are˒_approaching

In a context such as this, your language might say “go” instead of come. Alternate translation: [go to]

Note 3 topic: writing-quotations

λέγοντες

saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: [and they said]
