10:15 Capernaum was Jesus’ base of operations during his Galilean ministry; this town saw many of his miracles (see 4:31-41).
• to the place of the dead: Though Capernaum was blessed by the Messiah’s presence, it would be judged for its pride and rejection of Jesus.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / apostrophe
σύ, Καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ?
you Capernaum not to heaven ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_exalted
Jesus is speaking to another city that he knows cannot hear him. He is doing this once again to show in a very strong way how he feels about this city. He is actually speaking to the people who can hear him, the disciples whom he is sending out. If your readers might not understand this kind of figurative speech, you could translate Jesus’ words as if he were speaking directly to his disciples. Alternate translation: “The people of Capernaum are wrong to think that God is going to honor them greatly”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives
σύ, Καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ?
you Capernaum not to heaven ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_exalted
In Greek, the first word of the question that Jesus asks Capernaum is a negative word that can be used to turn a negative statement into a question that expects a negative answer. ULT shows this by adding, will you? Your language may have other ways of asking a question that expects a negative answer, for example, by changing the word order of a positive statement. Translate this in the way that would be clearest in your language. Alternate translation: “you people of Capernaum, do you really think that God is going to honor you greatly?”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
σύ, Καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ?
you Capernaum not to heaven ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_exalted
Jesus is using the question form to teach. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate his words as a statement. Alternate translation: “you people of Capernaum are wrong to think that God is going to honor you greatly.”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
σύ, Καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ?
you Capernaum not to heaven ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_exalted
To be exalted or “lifted up” is a spatial metaphor that indicates receiving honor. To be lifted all the way up to heaven (or “to the sky,” another possible meaning) means to receive very great honor. Alternate translation: “you people of Capernaum are wrong to think that God is going to honor you greatly.”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
σύ, Καφαρναούμ
you Capernaum
Jesus uses the name of this city to refer to the people who live there. Alternate translation: “you people of Capernaum”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / you
σύ, Καφαρναούμ
you Capernaum
Jesus is addressing an individual city, so you is singular here and in the rest of this verse. However, if you decide to translate this as “you people of Capernaum,” then you would be plural.
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ
not to heaven ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_exalted
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who would do the action. Alternate translation: “God is not going to honor you greatly, is he”
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ
not to heaven ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_exalted
If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state the reason why the people of Capernaum think that God would want to honor them. Alternate translation: “God is not going to honor you greatly because you are such good people and your city is so prosperous, is he”
Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἕως τοῦ ᾍδου καταβήσῃ
to to (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ σύ Καφαρναούμ μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ ἕως ᾍδου καταβήσῃ)
To be brought down is another spatial metaphor. It indicates experiencing punishment and dishonor. To be brought down all the way to Hades, the underworld (that is, the abode of the dead), means to receive very great punishment or dishonor. Alternate translation: “God is going to punish you severely”
Note 10 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἕως τοῦ ᾍδου καταβήσῃ
to to (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ σύ Καφαρναούμ μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ ἕως ᾍδου καταβήσῃ)
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form, and you could state who would do the action. Alternate translation: “God is going to punish you severely”
Note 11 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἕως τοῦ ᾍδου καταβήσῃ
to to (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ σύ Καφαρναούμ μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ ἕως ᾍδου καταβήσῃ)
It may be helpful to state clearly the reason why God will judge Capernaum. Alternate translation: “God is going to punish you severely because you did not repent and believe in me, even though you saw me do miracles”
