saying
Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and they said”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
Μωϋσῆς εἶπεν, ἐάν τις ἀποθάνῃ μὴ ἔχων τέκνα, ἐπιγαμβρεύσει ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀναστήσει σπέρμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ
Moses said if anyone /may/_die_off not having children /will_be/_marrying the brother ˱of˲_him the wife ˱of˲_him and ˱he˲_/will_be/_raising_up children ˱for˲_the brother ˱of˲_him
If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “Moses said that if someone has died, not having children, his brother will marry his wife and will raise up seed for his brother.”
Note 3 topic: writing-quotations
Μωϋσῆς εἶπεν
Moses said
Here, the Sadducees introduce a summary of a section of an important text, in this case, the Old Testament book of Deuteronomy (see Deuteronomy 25:5–6). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase that indicates that the Sadducees are summarizing an important text. Alternate translation: “Moses wrote in the book of Deuteronomy” or “Moses declared in the Law”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo
ἐάν τις ἀποθάνῃ μὴ ἔχων τέκνα, ἐπιγαμβρεύσει ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ
if anyone /may/_die_off not having children /will_be/_marrying the brother ˱of˲_him
Here Moses uses an imaginary situation to show what should happen when that kind of situation actually happens. Use a natural method in your language for introducing an imaginary situation. Alternate translation: “Suppose that someone has died, not having children. Then, his brother will marry”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐπιγαμβρεύσει ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀναστήσει σπέρμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ
/will_be/_marrying the brother ˱of˲_him the wife ˱of˲_him and ˱he˲_/will_be/_raising_up children ˱for˲_the brother ˱of˲_him
Here Moses required that, when a man’s brother died without having any children even though he was married, the man had to marry his brother’s widow. The first child that they had would be considered offspring of the man’s deceased brother. That way, the deceased brother’s family line could continue. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit in your translation, or you could include some of this information in a footnote. Alternate translation: “his brother will marry the widow and will raise up seed with her. The first child will continue the dead man’s family line”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / declarative
ἐπιγαμβρεύσει ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀναστήσει
/will_be/_marrying the brother ˱of˲_him the wife ˱of˲_him and ˱he˲_/will_be/_raising_up
The author of the quotation is using the future form to give a command. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea using a form that expresses a command or obligation. Alternate translation: “his brother must marry his wife and must raise up”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἀναστήσει σπέρμα
˱he˲_/will_be/_raising_up children
Here, the author of the quotation is speaking of having a child as if it were raising up seed. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will produce offspring”
22:23-33 The resurrection was an important issue of Jesus’ day, but the question was raised only to trap Jesus.
