UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

διὰ τοῦτο

because_of this

Here, this refers to someone doing something on the Sabbath to help someone else. More specifically, Jesus is referring to the time he offended the Jews by healing a paralyzed man on the Sabbath. This event was indirectly mentioned in the previous verse. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [On account of activities like healing taking place on the Sabbath]

Note 2 topic: writing-background

οὐχ ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ Μωϋσέως ἐστὶν, ἀλλ’ ἐκ τῶν πατέρων

not that of ¬the Moses is but of the fathers

Here Jesus provides additional information about where the Jewish practice of circumcision came from. Use the natural form in your language for expressing background information.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῶν πατέρων

the fathers

Here, fathers refers specifically to the first ancestors of the Jewish people, who are often called “the Patriarchs.” Those people are Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It does not refer to the ancestors of the Jewish people in general. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [the Patriarchs] or [the men who founded the Jewish people]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν Σαββάτῳ περιτέμνετε ἄνθρωπον

on /the/_Sabbath ˱you_all˲_/are/_circumcising /a/_man

Jesus implies that to circumcise a child was a kind of work. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [you circumcise a male baby on the Sabbath. That is working too]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

ἄνθρωπον

/a/_man

Jesus is speaking of any Jewish man in general, not of one particular man. If this use of man would be misunderstood in your language, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: [men]
