Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
κηρυχθήσεται τοῦτο τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς βασιλείας
/will_be_being/_proclaimed this ¬the gospel ˱of˲_the kingdom
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, Jesus implies that his disciples will do it. Alternate translation: “you will preach this gospel of the kingdom”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
τοῦτο τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς βασιλείας
this ¬the gospel ˱of˲_the kingdom
Here, Jesus is using the possessive form to describe a gospel that is about the kingdom. If this is not clear in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “the gospel concerning the kingdom”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
εἰς μαρτύριον
for /a/_testimony
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of testimony, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “so that someone testifies about it” or “so that it is testified”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
πᾶσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν
˱to˲_all the nations
Here, the word nations represents the people who live in those nations. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “to the people of all the nations”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸ τέλος
¬the the end
Here Jesus is speaking about the end of the age, which is what the disciples asked about. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the end of the world” or “the moment in the future when the current way of doing things will cease”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἥξει
/will_be/_coming
Here Jesus speaks as if the end were something that could come. He means that the end will happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will happen”
24:14 throughout the whole world: This anticipates the expansive Gentile mission (see 21:43; 28:16-20). There will be a delay prior to the end, however short or long, during which the Good News will spread significantly throughout the nations.
• The end will be signaled by a “sacrilegious object” (24:15), furious persecution (24:16-28), and finally the sign of the Son of Man (24:29-31).
