TSNTyndale Study Notes:

8:12-59 The debate about whether or not Jesus is the Messiah continues from 7:52. Jesus was still at the Festival of Shelters in Jerusalem. During the festival, the conflicts Jesus had endured in ch 7 continued and intensified.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μαρτυρεῖ περὶ ἐμοῦ ὁ πέμψας με Πατήρ

/is/_testifying about me the /having/_sent me Father

In addition to Jesus himself, God the Father also testifies about Jesus. Jesus thus implies that his testimony is true, because there are two witnesses. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “my Father, who sent me, also brings evidence about me. So you should believe that what we tell you is true” or “my Father, who sent me, also testifies about me. Therefore, my testimony is true”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὁ πέμψας με Πατήρ

the_‹one› the /having/_sent me Father

Here, this phrase refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in verse 16.

Note 3 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

(Occurrence 2) ὁ & Πατήρ

the & Father

Father is an important title for God.
