OET (OET-RV) and when they saw him there, they immediately bowed down to the ground, even though their minds weren’t sure that it was really him.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
οἱ & ἐδίστασαν
they & doubted
Here Matthew implies that the disciples doubted that the person they were seeing was really Jesus and that he had really become alive again. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “they doubted whether Jesus really was there” or “they doubted whether Jesus really was alive”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
οἱ
they
Here, the word translated they could refer to: (1) all the disciples who worshiped Jesus. Alternate translation: “they also” (2) some of the disciples who worshiped Jesus. Alternate translation: “some of them”
28:17 some of them doubted: This might be a veiled reference to Thomas (John 20:24-29), but all eleven might have experienced a mixture of both worship and doubt (see also Matt 14:31; Luke 24:10-11; John 20:24-29).
OET (OET-RV) and when they saw him there, they immediately bowed down to the ground, even though their minds weren’t sure that it was really him.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
