UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

γὰρ

for

Here, the word for introduces a further explanation of what the author said in the previous verse (9:23) about the “heavenly things” and the “better sacrifices.” The explanation continues through 9:25–26. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a further explanation. Alternate translation: [which is why] or [and so]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

χειροποίητα & ἅγια & ἀντίτυπα τῶν ἀληθινῶν

handmade & holy_‹places› & representatives ˱of˲_the true

Here, the phrases holy places and copies refer to the earthly Most Holy Place. The phrase the true ones refers to the heavenly Most Holy Place. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make the ideas more explicit. Alternate translation: [a Most Holy Place made with hands—a copy of the true heavenly one]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

χειροποίητα

handmade

Here, the word hands refers to main part of the body that people use to make things. So the phrase refers to the whole person who makes things. If it would be helpful in your language, you could clarify that hands refers to humans in general, not just their hands. Alternate translation: [made by humans] or [made by people]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

χειροποίητα

handmade

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on the holy places that are made rather than on the hands that made them. Alternate translation: [that hands made]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

αὐτὸν τὸν οὐρανόν

itself ¬the heaven

Here, the phrase heaven itself is singular. In this letter, the author usually uses the plural form “heavens.” So it is likely that the author uses the phrase heaven itself to refer to the highest of multiple heavens, which is where the heavenly sanctuary and God’s throne are. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to the highest or most important heaven. Alternate translation: [the heaven that is above all the others] or [the most important heaven]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐμφανισθῆναι

/to_be/_manifested

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author’s point is that Jesus is currently visible to God, so use a form that would express that idea well. Alternate translation: [to appear] or [to become visible]
