OET interlinear MARK 3:1

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

καὶ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἰσῆλθεν πάλιν εἰς συναγωγήν καί ἦν ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος ἐξηραμμένην ἔχων τήν χεῖρα)

Here, the word And introduces the next major event in the story. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave And untranslated. Alternate translation: [After that,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

πάλιν εἰς συναγωγήν

again into ˓the˒_synagogue

Here Mark implies that this is a synagogue that Jesus has already visited, most likely the one in Capernaum (see [1:21](../01/21.md)). If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [again into the synagogue in Capernaum]

Note 3 topic: writing-participants

ἦν ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος, ἐξηραμμένην ἔχων τὴν χεῖρα

was there ˓a˒_man ˓having_been˒_withered having (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἰσῆλθεν πάλιν εἰς συναγωγήν καί ἦν ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος ἐξηραμμένην ἔχων τήν χεῖρα)

Here Mark introduces a man with a withered hand as a new participant in the story. If your language has its own way of introducing new participants, you could use it here in your translation. Alternate translation: [a certain man was in the synagogue, and he had a withered hand]

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

ἐξηραμμένην ἔχων τὴν χεῖρα

˓having_been˒_withered having (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἰσῆλθεν πάλιν εἰς συναγωγήν καί ἦν ἐκεῖ ἄνθρωπος ἐξηραμμένην ἔχων τήν χεῖρα)

This means that the man’s hand was damaged in such a way that he could not stretch it out. It was probably bent almost into a fist, making it look smaller. Use a word or phrase that expresses this idea clearly. Alternate translation: [having a shriveled hand] or [whose hand was atrophied]
