TSNTyndale Study Notes:

10:9 Nor . . . put Christ to the test: See Deut 6:16; Ps 78:18-20; Matt 4:7.
• Christ: Some manuscripts read the Lord, which probably represents a scribe’s attempt to harmonize with the Old Testament context.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-textvariants

τὸν Κύριον

the Lord

Many early manuscripts have the Lord here, but many other early manuscripts have “Christ.” Consider whether translations with which your readers might be familiar use “Christ” or the Lord. If there is no strong reason to choose one option over the other, you could follow the ULT.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τινες αὐτῶν ἐπείρασαν, καὶ ὑπὸ τῶν ὄφεων ἀπώλλυντο

some ˱of˲_them tested_‹him› and by ¬the serpents /were_being/_destroyed

Here Paul refers to a story found in Numbers 21:5–6. In this story, many Israelites “spoke against” or challenged their leaders and God himself. In response, God sent snakes that bit the Israelites, and many of the people died. If your readers are not familiar with this story, you could add a footnote that refers to or summarizes the story.

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

καὶ

and

Here, and introduces the result of the Israelites “putting” the Lord to the test. If your language does not use and to introduce a result, you can use a word or phrase that is more natural. Alternate translation: [and as a result] or [with the result that they]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ὑπὸ τῶν ὄφεων ἀπώλλυντο

by ¬the serpents /were_being/_destroyed

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Paul uses the passive form here to focus on those who are destroyed rather than focusing on who or what does the “destroying.” If you must state who did the action, Paul implies that “God” did it by using the snakes. Alternate translation: [God used snakes to destroy them]
