UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

πᾶς ὁ προάγων καὶ μὴ μένων ἐν τῇ διδαχῇ τοῦ Χριστοῦ

everyone ¬which going_beyond and not remaining in the teaching ˱of˲_the Messiah

John figuratively refers to the teaching of Christ as a place where faithful believers remain and also as a place that false teachers leave as they go beyond. The expression going beyond refers to teaching new and false things that Jesus did not teach. Alternate translation: [Everyone who teaches things that Jesus did not teach]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

πᾶς ὁ προάγων καὶ μὴ μένων ἐν τῇ διδαχῇ τοῦ Χριστοῦ

everyone ¬which going_beyond and not remaining in the teaching ˱of˲_the Messiah

These two phrases mean the same thing, one stated positively (going beyond) and the other stated negatively (not remaining). If it is more natural in your language, you can reverse the order of these, as in the UST.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Θεὸν οὐκ ἔχει

God not /is/_having

To have God means to have a relationship with God as Savior through faith in Jesus Christ. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this explicitly. Alternate translation: [does not have a right relationship with God] or [does not truly know God]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

ὁ μένων ἐν τῇ διδαχῇ, οὗτος καὶ τὸν Πατέρα καὶ τὸν Υἱὸν ἔχει

¬which the_‹one› remaining in the teaching this_‹one› both the Father and the Son /is/_having

By one, John does not mean a particular person. He means anyone remaining in the teaching of Jesus. Alternate translation: [Anyone who follows Christ’s teaching belongs to both the Father and the Son]

Note 5 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

ὁ μένων ἐν τῇ διδαχῇ

¬which the_‹one› remaining in the teaching

This phrase is in contrast to the previous sentence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase to mark this contrast, as in the UST.

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

οὗτος

this_‹one›

John is using the demonstrative adjective this as a noun, to refer to a kind of person. ULT indicates this by adding the word one. If your language does not use adjectives in this way, you can translate this with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [such a person] or [that kind of person]

Note 7 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

τὸν Πατέρα καὶ τὸν Υἱὸν

the Father and the Son

Father and Son are important titles that describe the relationship between God and Jesus Christ. Be sure to express these titles consistently and accurately.
