OET interlinear MAT 15:30

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

χωλούς, τυφλούς, κυλλούς, κωφούς

lame (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ προσῆλθον αὐτῷ ὄχλοι πολλοὶ ἔχοντες μεθʼ ἑαυτῶν χωλούς κυλλούς τυφλούς κωφούς καὶ ἑτέρους πολλούς καὶ ἔρριψαν αὐτοὺς παρὰ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐθεράπευσεν αὐτούς)

Matthew is using the adjectives lame, blind, crippled, and mute as nouns to mean people who were sick in all those ways. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate these words with equivalent phrases. Alternate translation: “people who were lame, blind, crippled, and mute”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἑτέρους πολλούς

others many

Here Matthew implies that these people were sick in other ways. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “many other sick people” or “many who were sick in various other ways”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἔρριψαν αὐτοὺς παρὰ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ

˱they˲_laid_down them before the feet ˱of˲_him

Here, the phrase they laid them at his feet means that the crowds laid the sick people in front of Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “they laid them before him”

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

ἔρριψαν αὐτοὺς & αὐτούς

˱they˲_laid_down them & them

Here, the word they refers to the large crowds, and the word them refers to the sick people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to these people more directly. Alternate translation: “the crowds laid the sick people … those sick people”
