OET (OET-RV)Anyone who belongs to God, listens to what God says. But you all can’t even hear the message, because you don’t belong to God.

OET-LVThe one being of the god, is_hearing the messages of_ the _god, because_of this you_all are_ not _hearing, because you_all_are not of the god.

SR-GNT ὢν ἐκ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ ἀκούει· διὰ τοῦτο ὑμεῖς οὐκ ἀκούετε, ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ οὐκ ἐστέ.”
   (Ho ōn ek tou ˚Theou, ta ɽaʸmata tou ˚Theou akouei; dia touto humeis ouk akouete, hoti ek tou ˚Theou ouk este.”)

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

ὁ ὢν ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ & ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐκ ἐστέ

the_‹one› being of ¬the God & of ¬the God not ˱you_all˲_are

The phrase from God could refer to: (1) the person to whom the subject belongs, as in the UST. (2) the origin of the subject. Alternate translation: “He who came from God … you did not come from God”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

ὁ ὢν ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ

the_‹one› being of ¬the God

Although He is masculine, Jesus is using the word here in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “A person who is from God”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀκούει & ὑμεῖς οὐκ ἀκούετε

/is/_hearing & you_all not /are/_hearing

Here, hears and hear mean to listen to something with the intent to heed it and respond appropriately. See how you translated hear in verse 43. Alternate translation: “heeds … you do not heed”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ Θεοῦ

the words ¬the ˱of˲_God

Here, Jesus uses words to refer to what God has said. See how you translated words in 5:47. Alternate translation: “the things that God has said”
