OET interlinear MARK 15:32

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

ὁ Χριστὸς, ὁ Βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ καταβάτω νῦν ἀπὸ τοῦ σταυροῦ, ἵνα ἴδωμεν καὶ πιστεύσωμεν

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ Χριστός ὁ Βασιλεύς Ἰσραήλ καταβάτω νῦν ἀπό τοῦ σταυροῦ ἵνα ἴδωμεν καί πιστεύσωμεν Καί οἱ συνεσταυρωμένοι σύν αὐτῷ ὠνείδιζον αὐτόν)

Here the Jewish leaders use what they think is an imaginary situation to prove that Jesus is not really the Christ, the King of Israel. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a natural method in your language for introducing an imaginary situation. Alternate translation: [Imagine he really were the Christ, the King of Israel. In that case, he should come down now from the cross so that we might see and might believe] or [If he is the Christ, the King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross. Then, we will see and believe]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / irony

ὁ Χριστὸς, ὁ Βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ καταβάτω

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ Χριστός ὁ Βασιλεύς Ἰσραήλ καταβάτω νῦν ἀπό τοῦ σταυροῦ ἵνα ἴδωμεν καί πιστεύσωμεν Καί οἱ συνεσταυρωμένοι σύν αὐτῷ ὠνείδιζον αὐτόν)

Here the Jewish leaders mock Jesus by speaking about him as if he were the Christ, the King of Israel when they do not believe that he actually is. They actually mean to communicate the opposite of the literal meaning of their words, as Mark indicated when he says that they mocked Jesus (see [15:31](../15/31.md)). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that indicates that this is irony. Alternate translation: [Let the so-called Christ, the King of Israel, come down] or [He calls himself the Christ, the King of Israel. Let him come down]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p

ὁ Χριστὸς, ὁ Βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ καταβάτω

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ Χριστός ὁ Βασιλεύς Ἰσραήλ καταβάτω νῦν ἀπό τοῦ σταυροῦ ἵνα ἴδωμεν καί πιστεύσωμεν Καί οἱ συνεσταυρωμένοι σύν αὐτῷ ὠνείδιζον αὐτόν)

If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [The Christ, the King of Israel, must come down]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ὁ Χριστὸς, ὁ Βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ καταβάτω

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ὁ Χριστός ὁ Βασιλεύς Ἰσραήλ καταβάτω νῦν ἀπό τοῦ σταυροῦ ἵνα ἴδωμεν καί πιστεύσωμεν Καί οἱ συνεσταυρωμένοι σύν αὐτῷ ὠνείδιζον αὐτόν)

In a context such as this, your language might say “go” instead of come. Alternate translation: [Let the Christ, the King of Israel, go down]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἴδωμεν καὶ πιστεύσωμεν

Here the Jewish leaders imply that they might see Jesus coming down from the cross and then they might believe that he really is the Christ, the King of Israel. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make those ideas more explicit. Alternate translation: [we might see him come down and might believe that he really is the Christ]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

συνεσταυρωμένοι

˓having_been˒_crucified_with

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, it is clear from the context that it was the soldiers. Alternate translation: [whom Pilate’s soldiers were crucifying]
