OET (OET-LV) How you_all_are_ not _understanding that I_spoke to_you_all not concerning the_loaves?
And be_taking_heed of the leaven of_the Farisaios_party and Saddoukaios_sect.

OET (OET-RV) How can you fail to understand that I wasn’t talking to you about bread? Watch out for the yeast from the Pharisees and Sadducees.

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.

16:11a

How do you not understand that I was not telling you about bread?

How do you not understand that I was not telling you about bread?: This is another rhetorical question. It is a rebuke. Jesus rebuked the disciples for not understanding what he was talking about in 16:6. When he referred to the “leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees,” he was not talking about bread. The disciples should have understood that.

Here are some other ways to translate this rebuke:

Translate this rebuke in a way that is natural in your language.

16:11b

But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees: This clause is almost the same clause as in 16:6. The only difference is that the phrase “Watch out” is not repeated here. Translate this clause the same way you did in 16:6 without including that word.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

πῶς οὐ νοεῖτε, ὅτι οὐ περὶ ἄρτων εἶπον ὑμῖν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πῶς οὒ νοεῖτε ὅτι οὒ περί ἄρτων εἶπον ὑμῖν προσέχετε Δέ ἀπό τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καί Σαδδουκαίων)

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: [You do not perceive that I did not speak to you about loaves!] or [I am disappointed that you do not perceive that I did not speak to you about loaves.]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πῶς οὒ νοεῖτε ὅτι οὒ περί ἄρτων εἶπον ὑμῖν προσέχετε Δέ ἀπό τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καί Σαδδουκαίων)

Here, the word But introduces what Jesus really wants to say about yeast in contrast to simply speaking about bread. 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 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ Σαδδουκαίων

the leaven ˱of˲_the Pharisees (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πῶς οὒ νοεῖτε ὅτι οὒ περί ἄρτων εἶπον ὑμῖν προσέχετε Δέ ἀπό τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καί Σαδδουκαίων)

Here, just as in [16:6](../16/06.md), Jesus is using the possessive form to describe yeast that the Pharisees and Sadducees have or use. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the yeast that the Pharisees and Sadducees have]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ Σαδδουκαίων

the leaven ˱of˲_the Pharisees (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Πῶς οὒ νοεῖτε ὅτι οὒ περί ἄρτων εἶπον ὑμῖν προσέχετε Δέ ἀπό τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων καί Σαδδουκαίων)

As in [16:6](../16/06.md), yeast is a metaphor that refers to what the Pharisees and Sadducees teach. However, the disciples did not immediately understand that Jesus was using a metaphor; instead, they do not realize what yeast refers to until [16:12](../16/12.md). So, you should preserve the metaphor here without explaining its meaning, since Matthew will give an explanation in [16:12](../16/12.md).
