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.

TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

The Climax of Scripture

The account of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus is significant not only as a resurrection appearance—and so as proof of Jesus’ victory over death—but also as a key moment of revelation concerning the role of the Messiah and the Old Testament prophecies about him.

The two disciples pointed out to their anonymous traveling companion that this man named Jesus had shown himself to be a great prophet through his teaching and miracles. But they had hoped that he might be even more—the Messiah! Their hopes were shattered, however, when he was arrested and crucified.

Jesus responded by rebuking them for not reading the Scriptures attentively enough. The suffering of the Messiah was predicted all along in Scripture. Luke then relates how Jesus took the two disciples on a tour of Scripture, explaining to them “from all the Scriptures the things concerning himself” (Luke 24:27).

Although Jesus does not specify which Old Testament passages speak of the suffering Messiah, various texts are cited elsewhere. Jesus is the rejected stone that becomes the cornerstone, the foundation for a new temple of God (Ps 118:22, cited in Luke 20:17); the suffering Servant of the Lord, who is treated like a common criminal (Isa 53:12, cited in Luke 22:37) and who is mocked, insulted and spit upon by his opponents (Isa 50:6, alluded to in Luke 18:32); the anointed king rejected by rulers and the people of Israel, but vindicated by God (Ps 2:1–2, cited in Acts 4:25–28); the descendant of David who will not be abandoned to the grave by God (Ps 16:8–11, cited in Acts 2:25–28).

According to Luke 24:27, Jesus surveyed the whole story of Israel’s history and showed how it all leads to and climaxes in the coming of Jesus the Messiah, God’s agent of salvation. This is similar to how Paul describes Christ as having “accomplished the purpose for which the law was given” (Rom 10:4). All the Old Testament Scriptures—including the law of Moses, the prophets, and the Psalms (Luke 24:44)—point to God’s story of salvation, which reaches its climax and ultimate purpose in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 18:31–34: Jesus again predicted his death

Jesus had told his disciples in 9:22 and 9:44 that people would kill him and that he would rise from the dead after three days. In this section Jesus again told the disciples that these things would happen to him. This time he gave more details about how these events would happen.

It is good to translate this section before you decide on a heading for it. Some other examples of headings for this section are:

Jesus Again Predicts His Death (NIV)

Jesus continues his journey toward suffering and death in Jerusalem

Refer to your section title for Section 9:43b–45. If you used a phrase that means “the second time” there, you should use a phrase that means “the third time” here. For example:

For the Third Time Jesus Foretells That He Will Die and Come Back to Life (GW)

There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 20:17–19 and Mark 10:32–34.

18:32a

He will be delivered over to the Gentiles

People will take him to the Gentile rulers.
Some people in Jerusalem will arrest me and put me in the power of other people who are not Jews.

He will be delivered over to the Gentiles: The Greek expression that the BSB translates as He will be delivered over to the Gentiles is a passive clause. Some ways to translate it are:

As a passive clause. For example:
He will be handed over to foreigners. (GW)
As an active clause. For example:
people/they will put the Son of Man into the power of the Gentiles

The text does not say explicitly who would hand Jesus over to the Gentiles. The context implies that it would be some of the Jews in Jerusalem. However, it is best to use a general term like “they” or “people.”

delivered over: The Greek verb that the BSB translates as delivered over means to deliver/give someone to his enemies so that the enemies gain power over him. Then the enemies can do whatever they want to him. It is the same word that is sometimes translated as “betray,” as in 22:4.

Many English versions use a figurative expression like delivered over or “turned over” here. Describe this action in a natural way in your language. Be careful not to use a term that implies that the people would use spiritual means such as magic to put Jesus into the power of his enemies. Also, do not use an expression that would imply that Jesus was guilty.

the Gentiles: The word Gentiles refers to people who are not Jewish. In this context it refers to the Romans who were ruling Israel at this time. Here is another way to translate this:

He will be handed over to the Romans (NLT)

18:32b

and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.

These Gentiles will mock/ridicule him, mistreat him and spit on him.
These people will scoff/laugh at me, insult me, and spit on me to shame me.

and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon: The phrase and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon describes what the Gentiles (Romans) would do to Jesus. It does not mean that the people who would deliver Jesus over to them would do these things.

will be mocked: The Greek word that the BSB translates as mocked means “ridiculed.” People may ridicule someone by imitating him in a distorted way. They try to humiliate or shame him so that other people will not respect him. This is what the Roman soldiers would do to Jesus in 23:35–43.

insulted: The word insulted refers to saying or doing things to shame another person. Jesus would be insulted by people who would mistreat him and speak to him with contempt. Some other ways to translate this are:

mistreat him (CEV)

will be…shamefully treated (RSV)

will be…insulted (NRSV)

and spit upon: In Jewish culture, spitting on a person, especially in the face, was one of the worst ways to insult him. People spit on a person to shame him and imply that he was completely worthless. If spitting on someone does not mean this in your culture, you may need to make this explicit. For example:

spit on him to shame him

General Comment on 18:32a–b

In Greek the verbs in this section are all passive. If it is natural in your language, you could also use active verbs. For example:

He will be delivered over to the Gentiles. They will mock him, insult him and spit on him (NIV)

Remember that in 18:32a–b Luke referred to two groups of people:

“They” or “people” handed Jesus over to the Gentiles.
Then the Gentiles (Romans) mocked, insulted, and spit on him.
