HEB 4:6 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὖν

therefore

Here, the word Therefore introduces the conclusion to what the author has argued in 4:2–5. Use a word or phrase that introduces this kind of conclusion. Alternate translation: “Because of all that”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἰσελθεῖν εἰς αὐτήν & οὐκ εἰσῆλθον

/to/_come_in into it & not came_in

Here, just as in 4:1, the rest which people enter could refer to: (1) the state of “resting.” Alternate translation: “to participate in it … did not participate” or “to rest with God … did not rest with God” (2) the place where people rest, particularly the land that God promised to give to his people. Alternate translation: “to enter into the place … did not enter it” or “to enter into the land … did not enter it”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἱ πρότερον εὐαγγελισθέντες

the_‹ones› previously /having_been/_gospel_preached

Here, those who had the good news proclaimed to them are the same people the author mentions as “them” in 4:2: the Israelite ancestors whom God led out of Egypt and who did not enter the Promised Land. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make who these people are more explicit. Alternate translation: “the Israelite ancestors who previously had the gospel proclaimed to them” or “the people of that generation who previously had the gospel proclaimed to them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

οὐκ εἰσῆλθον δι’ ἀπείθειαν

not came_in because_of disbelief

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of disobedience, you could express the idea by using a verb such as “disobey” or an adjective such as “disobedient.” Alternate translation: “did not enter, because they disobeyed” or “did not enter, because they were disobedient”
