LUKE 17:23 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 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.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐροῦσιν ὑμῖν, ἰδοὺ, ἐκεῖ, ἤ, ἰδοὺ, ὧδε

˱they˲_˓will_be˒_saying ˱to˲_you_all behold there_‹he_is› or behold here_‹he_is›

The implication in context is that Jesus is speaking of the Son of Man or Messiah. Alternate translation: [people will say to you, ‘Look, the Messiah is over there!’ or, ‘Look, the Messiah is over here]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

ἐροῦσιν ὑμῖν, ἰδοὺ, ἐκεῖ, ἤ, ἰδοὺ, ὧδε

˱they˲_˓will_be˒_saying ˱to˲_you_all behold there_‹he_is› or behold here_‹he_is›

If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [people will tell you that the Messiah is over in one place or with them in another place]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἰδοὺ & ἰδοὺ

behold & behold

These people would be using the term behold to get others to focus their attention on what they were saying. Alternate translation: [Hey … Hey]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

μὴ ἀπέλθητε μηδὲ διώξητε

not ˱you_all˲_˓may˒_go_away nor ˱you_all˲_˓may˒_pursue

The expressions go out and run after mean similar things. Jesus is likely using repetition for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could combine these terms into a single expression. Alternate translation: [Do not go where they tell you]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μὴ ἀπέλθητε μηδὲ διώξητε

not ˱you_all˲_˓may˒_go_away nor ˱you_all˲_˓may˒_pursue

The implication is that people would go to look for the Messiah. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [Do not go where they tell you to look for the Messiah]
