LUKE 10:31 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:

κατὰ συνκυρίαν

by (Some words not found in SR-GNT: κατὰ συγκυρίαν δὲ ἱερεύς τις κατέβαινεν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐκείνῃ καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ἀντιπαρῆλθεν)

This expression means that this event was not anything that anyone had planned. Alternate translation: [it just so happened that]

Note 1 topic: writing-participants

ἱερεύς τις

/a/_priest certain

This expression introduces a new character in the parable. Alternate translation: [there was a priest who]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἱερεύς τις

/a/_priest certain

Jesus assumes that his listeners will know that a priest is a religious leader. This detail is important to the story. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [there was a priest, a religious leader, who]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὸν

and /having/_seen him

Since a priest is a religious leader, the audience would assume that he would help the injured man. Since he did not, this phrase could be introduced with a contrasting word to call attention to this unexpected result. Alternate translation: [but when the priest saw the injured man]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀντιπαρῆλθεν

passed_by_opposite

The implication is that the priest did not help the man. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [he did not help him, but instead walked past him on the other side of the road]
