TSNTyndale Study Notes:

20:22 Jesus commissioned the disciples and then empowered them with the Holy Spirit. The Spirit had not been given previously because Jesus had not yet been glorified (7:39). The glorified Jesus, resplendent in his resurrected body, poured the Spirit on his followers. This gift fulfilled many promises that the Spirit would be sent (14:16, 26; 15:26; 16:7, 13). It foreshadows the arrival of the Spirit’s empowering presence at Pentecost (Acts 1:4-5; 2:1-47).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-symaction

ἐνεφύσησεν

˱he˲_breathed_on_‹them›

When Jesus breathed on them, he did this symbolic action in order to show that he would give his disciples the Holy Spirit in the near future. If this would be helpful to your readers, you could explain its significance. Alternate translation: “he breathed on them as a symbolic action” or “he breathed on them to symbolically show that he was going to give them the Holy Spirit”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐνεφύσησεν

˱he˲_breathed_on_‹them›

Here, breathed on refers to Jesus blowing air out of his mouth. It does not refer to the normal act of inhaling and exhaling air into one’s lungs. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: “he blew air on them”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

λέγει

/is/_saying

Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
