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 / 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 / metonymy

τὸν ἐμὸν λόγον

¬the my word

Here, word refers to the message or teachings of Jesus. See how you translated this phrase in 5:24. Alternate translation: “my message” or “what I say”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

θάνατον οὐ μὴ θεωρήσῃ

death by_no_means not ˱he˲_/may/_observe

Here Jesus uses see to refer to experiencing or participating in something. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “he will certainly not experience death”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo

θάνατον οὐ μὴ θεωρήσῃ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

death by_no_means not ˱he˲_/may/_observe to the age

Jesus uses death to refer to spiritual death, which is eternal punishment in hell that occurs after physical death. However, the Jews did not understand this. Therefore, you do not need to explain its meaning further here. Alternate translation: “he will certainly not die”
