TSNTyndale Study Notes:

14:25-35 A large crowd was following Jesus: Jesus’ popularity was high, but he was about to teach that the cost of following him was also very high.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἢ τίς βασιλεὺς πορευόμενος ἑτέρῳ βασιλεῖ συμβαλεῖν εἰς πόλεμον, οὐχὶ καθίσας πρῶτον βουλεύσεται, εἰ δυνατός ἐστιν ἐν δέκα χιλιάσιν ὑπαντῆσαι τῷ μετὰ εἴκοσι χιλιάδων ἐρχομένῳ ἐπ’ αὐτόν?

or what king going ˱with˲_another king /to/_encounter in war not /having/_sat_down first /will_be/_counselling whether powerful ˱he˲_is with ten thousands /to/_meet ˱with˲_the_‹one› with twenty thousands coming against him

Jesus is using this question as a teaching tool. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could translate it as a statement. Alternate translation: “Certainly a king who was going to war against another king would sit down first and determine whether with 10,000 troops he would be able to defeat a king who was attacking him with 20,000 troops.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

ἢ τίς βασιλεὺς πορευόμενος ἑτέρῳ βασιλεῖ συμβαλεῖν εἰς πόλεμον, οὐχὶ καθίσας πρῶτον βουλεύσεται

or what king going ˱with˲_another king /to/_encounter in war not /having/_sat_down first /will_be/_counselling

Jesus is offering the crowds an illustration that involves a hypothetical situation. Alternate translation: “Or suppose one king were going to fight a war against another king. Then he would certainly sit down first and determine”

βουλεύσεται

/will_be/_counselling

This could mean: (1) he would think carefully about it. (2) he would consult with his advisors to decide.
