TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:24 Jesus is the giver of life as well as the judge (see 5:21-22), but he never works independently of the Father.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

ἀμὴν, ἀμὴν, λέγω ὑμῖν

truly truly ˱I˲_/am/_saying ˱to˲_you_all

Jesus uses this phrase to emphasize the truth of the statement that follows. See how you translated this phrase in 1:51.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / you

λέγω ὑμῖν

˱I˲_/am/_saying ˱to˲_you_all

Since Jesus is speaking to a group of Jewish leaders, you is plural here and through 5:47. If your language does not have a different form for plural you, you can use another way to express it. Alternate translation: “I say to you Jews” or “I say to you all”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ τὸν λόγον μου ἀκούων

the_‹one› the word ˱of˲_me hearing

Here, hearing means listening to something with the intent to heed it and respond appropriately. It does not mean simply to hear what someone says. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the one heeding my word”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸν λόγον μου

the word ˱of˲_me

Here, word refers to the message or teachings of Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “my message”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῷ πέμψαντί με

˱in˲_the_‹one› /having/_sent me

Here, the one who sent me refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in 4:34.

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

εἰς κρίσιν οὐκ ἔρχεται

into judgment not /is/_coming

Jesus speaks of judgment as if it were a place a person could enter. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will not be judged”

μεταβέβηκεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν

/has/_departed out_of ¬the death into ¬the life

Here, passed means to move from one state to another. Alternate translation: “he has moved from death to life”
