LUKE 17:36 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—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). 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.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 17:20–37: Jesus taught about the time when the kingdom of God will come

The Greek text does not indicate when Jesus said the words in this section. Scholars believe that he said them during the same time period as the last section. During this time, Jesus was making his final journey to Jerusalem. The Pharisees asked him when the kingdom of God would come. Jesus answered by describing the way the Son of Man, the Messiah, will return to earth. He will return suddenly, and it will be obvious to everyone that he has returned. Jesus compared his return to how suddenly the flood came in the time of Noah and how suddenly Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed in the time of Lot.

Examples of headings for this section are:

Jesus taught about when the Son of Man will come

The coming of the Kingdom of God

Parallel passages are in Matthew 24:17–18, 24:23–28, 24:37–41, and Mark 13:14–16, 13:19–23.

Paragraph 17:34–37

For 17:34–35 see also Matthew 24:40–41. These verses indicate that some people who live and work close to one another will be separated at the time when Jesus returns.

17:36

There is a textual issue with this verse. Many Greek manuscripts do not have this verse,The UBS Greek NT 4^th rev. ed. omits this verse with an A rating, indicating that this decision about the text is certain. (For information about this rating system, see, p. 3 of the introduction to the Greek NT.) and most English versions do not include it. It is good to include this verse only as a footnote. An example footnote is:

Some Greek manuscripts include 17:36, which reads, “Two men will be working in the field; one will be taken and the other left.”

If the major language version in your area includes this verse in the text, you may want to include it in brackets. The NASB does this. The Display has the text in 17:36a and 17:36b in double full square brackets. The parallel passage is Matthew 24:40. The words in the Display are from the BSB footnote.

If you put this verse in a footnote, here are several ways to number the verses:

Put the numbers 35 and 36 together at the beginning of 35. Put the footnote marker at the end of 35. For example:
^35–36Two women will be together grinding wheat, but only one will be taken. The other will be left. ‡ (CEV)
Put in the number 36 after the last word of 17:35, and have the footnote marker after it. For example:
³⁵…one will be taken and the other will be left. ³⁶‡ ³⁷The followers asked… (NCV)
Do not include the number 36. For example:
³⁵Two women will be grinding grain together. One will be taken, and the other one will be left. ‡ ³⁷They asked him… (GW)

17:36a

Two men will be in the field.

[[Two men will be in a field/garden.
[[Two men may be farming together.

Two men will be in the field: This clause implies that the men will be working together. In some languages it will be helpful to include this information. For example:

Two men will be working together in the field

17:36b

One will be taken and the other left.]]

I will take one, but I will leave the other.”]]
God will take one and will leave the other behind.”]]

One will be taken and the other left: This part of the verse is the same as 17:35b.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-textvariants

δύο ἐν ἀγρῷ εἰς παραληφθήσεται καὶ ὁ ἕτερος ἀφεθήσεται

(duo en agrōi eis paralaʸfthaʸsetai kai ho heteros afethaʸsetai)

See the discussion of textual issues at the end of the General Notes to this chapter to decide whether to include this verse in your translation. The notes below discuss translation issues in the verse, for those who decide to include it.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

δύο ἐν ἀγρῷ

(duo en agrōi)

Jesus is speaking of a hypothetical situation that might occur at this time. It may be helpful to make this a separate sentence. Alternate translation: [Suppose that when this happens, two people are out working in a field]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

εἰς παραληφθήσεται καὶ ὁ ἕτερος ἀφεθήσεται

(eis paralaʸfthaʸsetai kai ho heteros afethaʸsetai)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could use active forms for both of these verbs, and you could state who would do the actions. See how you decided to translate this in [17:34](../17/34.md). Alternate translation: [God will spare one of them but destroy the other] or [God will destroy one of them but spare the other]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

εἰς παραληφθήσεται

(eis paralaʸfthaʸsetai)

If you translated the beginning of this verse as the condition of a hypothetical situation, translate this as the result of that condition, as a separate sentence. Alternate translation: [Then one of them will be taken]
