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: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

ὁ Πατήρ

the Father

Father is an important title for God.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

ὃν ὑμεῖς λέγετε, ὅτι Θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐστιν

˱of˲_whom you_all /are/_saying ¬that God ˱of˲_us ˱he˲_is

If the direct quotation inside a direct quotation would be confusing in your language, you could translate the second direct quotation as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “about whom you say that he is your God”
