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.

Key for above GNTs: red:words differ (from our SR-GNT base).
2:24 John uses a play on words here. Because of his signs, many people trusted in Jesus (2:23), but Jesus didn’t trust them. This did not refer to specific people Jesus met in Jerusalem, but reflects his knowledge of all humanity.
οὐκ ἐπίστευεν αὑτὸν αὐτοῖς
not /was/_entrusting (Some words not found in SR-GNT: αὐτὸς δὲ Ἰησοῦς οὐκ ἐπίστευεν ἑαυτὸν αὐτοῖς διὰ τὸ αὐτὸν γινώσκειν πάντας)
Although many people were believing in him, Jesus knew that their belief was superficial and only lasted as long as he performed miracles for them. Therefore, he did not trust them the way he trusted his true disciples. Alternate translation: “did not trust them as true disciples” or “did not believe their belief in him”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
τὸ αὐτὸν γινώσκειν πάντας
that him /to_be/_knowing all_‹men›
Although the word men is masculine, John is using the word here in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “he knew all people”
