and ˱it˲_became when finished ¬the Jesus ¬the words these ˱he˲_withdrew

These clauses mark the end of Jesus’ teaching by stating that Jesus finished speaking to his disciples and then describing what he did next. Use a natural form in your language for expressing the conclusion of a story. Alternate translation: “At that time, Jesus finished speaking these words. Then, he departed”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τοὺς λόγους τούτους

¬the words these

Here Matthew uses the term words to refer to what Jesus said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “speaking these words”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μετῆρεν

˱he˲_withdrew

Here Matthew implies that the disciples were traveling with Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “he and his disciples departed”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἦλθεν

came

In a context such as this, your language might say “went” instead of came. Alternate translation: “went”

πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου

beyond the Jordan

Here, the phrase beyond the Jordan could refer to: (1) areas to the west of the Jordan River.

Alternate translation: “on the western side of the Jordan” (2) areas to the east of the Jordan River. In this case, Matthew means that some areas on the eastern side of the Jordan River could be called Judea. Alternate translation: “on the eastern side of the Jordan”
