OET interlinear MAT 27:61

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-simultaneous

δὲ

and

Here, the word Now introduces something that was happening at the same time as what Matthew narrated in the previous verse (Joseph burying Jesus’ body). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a simultaneous action, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: “Meanwhile,” or “While that was happening,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἡ ἄλλη Μαρία

the the other Mary

Here Matthew implies that this is the other woman, also called Mary, whom he mentioned in 27:56 as the mother of James and Joseph. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the other Mary, the mother of James and Joseph,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἀπέναντι

in_front_of

Here, the word opposite means that Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were directly in front of the tomb. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “before” or “facing”
