SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 16:5–12: Jesus warned against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees

In this section, Jesus warned his disciples about the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. The Pharisees and Sadducees refused to accept Jesus as the Messiah. And they tried to keep other Jews from believing that Jesus was the Messiah. They opposed Jesus and his message.

Jesus warned his disciples about the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees by telling them to be careful of their “leaven/yeast.” Jesus used leaven/yeast in a metaphorical sense to refer to their teaching. But the disciples thought that he referred to literal leaven/yeast. They thought that he said these things because they had forgotten to take bread on their trip. Jesus rebuked them for not understanding. Then he used some rhetorical questions to help them understand the correct meaning of his words.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Guard Against Wrong Teachings (NCV)

The yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees (NJB)

The teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees is compared to yeast

There is a parallel passage for this section in Mark 8:14–21.

Paragraph 16:5–12

In this paragraph Jesus warned the disciples about the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

16:10a

Or the seven loaves for the four thousand,

Or how seven loaves fed four thousand,
Do you not remember the feeding of four thousand men with seven loaves of bread?

Or: The word Or indicates that there is a second part to Jesus’ question. In some languages, it will be natural to repeat some of the words in the first part of the question. For example:

Do you not remember…

the seven loaves for the four thousand: This phrase refers to the miracle when Jesus fed four thousand men plus women and children. Matthew wrote about this story in 15:33–38.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

Or the seven loaves which fed the four thousand men.

Or do you not remember the feeding of four thousand men with seven loaves of bread

Also, have you forgotten how I fed four thousand men with seven loaves of bread?

16:10b

and how many basketfuls you gathered?

and how many large baskets full of leftovers you gathered?
Do you not remember the number of large baskets of leftover food that you picked up?

and: Verses 16:10a and 16:10b contain two more things that the disciples should have been thinking about. These two things are joined by the conjunction and.

In some languages, it will be more natural to make 16:10b a separate question. For example:

Do you not remember how many baskets you gathered?

how many basketfuls you gathered: This clause is just like 16:9c, except that the Greek word for basketfuls is different. Here, the word for basketfuls refers to a larger type of basket than the kind in 16:9c. If your language has words for two different sizes of baskets, use the word for the larger one here.

If your language has one word for all kinds of baskets, you may want to include a descriptive word. For example:

how many large baskets you gathered

The word for this larger type of basket also occurs in 15:37b. You should translate it here as you did there.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

οὐδὲ τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἄρτους τῶν τετρακισχιλίων, καὶ πόσας σπυρίδας ἐλάβετε?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐδέ τούς ἑπτά ἄρτους τῶν τετρακισχιλίων καί πόσας σπυρίδας ἐλάβετε)

Jesus is using the question form to rebuke the disciples. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [Nor do you perceive or remember the seven loaves of the 4,000, and how many baskets you received!] or [I am also disappointed that you do not yet perceive nor remember the seven loaves of the 4,000, and how many baskets you received.]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

οὐδὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐδέ τούς ἑπτά ἄρτους τῶν τετρακισχιλίων καί πόσας σπυρίδας ἐλάβετε)

Jesus is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the previous verse if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [Nor do you understand or remember]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἄρτους τῶν τετρακισχιλίων

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Οὐδέ τούς ἑπτά ἄρτους τῶν τετρακισχιλίων καί πόσας σπυρίδας ἐλάβετε)

Here Jesus is using the possessive form to refer to the seven loaves that he used to feed the 4,000. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the seven loaves that fed the 4,000]

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

ἄρτους

loaves

See how you translated loaves in [14:17](../14/17.md). Alternate translation: [large chunks of bread]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

τῶν τετρακισχιλίων

˱of˲_the four_thousand

Matthew is using the number 4,000 as a noun to mean 4,000 men. Your language may use numbers in the same way. If not, you could translate this one with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [of the 4,000 men]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

σπυρίδας

baskets

Here Jesus implies that the baskets were full of leftover food. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [baskets full of leftovers]

Note 7 topic: translate-unknown

σπυρίδας

baskets

See how you translated baskets in [15:37](../15/37.md). Alternate translation: [boxes] or [containers]
