YHN 8:47 Parallel Verse View

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.

UTN uW 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”
