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 as a tool 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.

15:22 The finest robe belonged to the father; it affirmed the son’s role as an heir and a cherished member of the household.
• Get a ring for his finger: A ring was a symbol of authority. Like the robe, it indicated his status as son and heir.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
εἶπεν δὲ ὁ πατὴρ πρὸς τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ, ταχὺ ἐξενέγκατε στολὴν τὴν πρώτην, καὶ ἐνδύσατε αὐτόν, καὶ δότε δακτύλιον εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὑποδήματα εἰς τοὺς πόδας
said but the father to the slaves ˱of˲_him quickly bring_out robe ¬the first and dress_in him and give ˓a˒_ring for the hand ˱of˲_him and sandals for his feet
If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that it is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [But the father told his servants quickly to bring the best robe they had and put it on his son, and to put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / you
ἐξενέγκατε & ἐνδύσατε & δότε
bring_out & dress_in & give
Since the father is speaking to a number of servants, the implied “you” in these imperatives would be plural. Your language may need to show that distinction explicitly.
Note 3 topic: translate-symaction
στολὴν τὴν πρώτην & δακτύλιον & ὑποδήματα
robe ¬the first & ˓a˒_ring & sandals
By having his servants put these things on his son, the father was showing that he was welcoming his son back as a member of the family in good standing. These were all signs of status, authority, and privilege. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that in some way in your translation.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
στολὴν τὴν πρώτην
robe ¬the first
As in [14:7](../14/07.md), here the word first means “best.” Alternate translation: [the best robe we have] or [the festive garment we save for special occasions]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
δότε δακτύλιον εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ
give ˓a˒_ring for the hand ˱of˲_him
The father says hand to mean one part of the hand, a finger. Alternate translation: [put a ring on his finger]
Note 6 topic: translate-unknown
ὑποδήματα
sandals
In this culture, poorer people went barefoot, while more affluent people wore sandals. They are a type of open footwear, typically made of leather, consisting of a sole that is held onto the foot with straps. The modern equivalent in many cultures where the poor go barefoot and the more affluent have footwear would be shoes. Alternate translation: [shoes]
