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.

10:1-42 Chapter 10 continues the series of festival sermons (see study note on 5:1–10:42). Here, the setting is Hanukkah (the Festival of Dedication), the timing of which is crucial to understanding the story (see study note on 10:22).
δαιμόνιον ἔχει
/a/_demon ˱he˲_/is/_having
See how you translated a similar phrase in 7:20. Alternate translation: [A demon is inside of him!] or [He must be under the control of a demon!]
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
τί αὐτοῦ ἀκούετε?
why ˱from˲_him ˱you_all˲_/are/_hearing
Jesus’ opponents are using the form of a question to emphasize that the people should not listen to Jesus. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate these words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [You should certainly not listen to him!]
