TSNTyndale Study Notes:

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

εἶπεν & πρὸς αὐτούς

˱he˲_said & to them

As in 20:40, it is unclear to whom the pronoun them refers. It may be best to translate it with a general statement here as well. Alternate translation: [Jesus said to those who were listening]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

πῶς λέγουσιν τὸν Χριστὸν εἶναι Δαυεὶδ Υἱόν?

how ˱they˲_/are/_saying the Messiah to_be (Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς πῶς λέγουσιν τὸν Χριστὸν εἶναι Δαυὶδ Υἱόν)

This does not seem to be a rhetorical question that Jesus is using as a teaching tool. Rather, it seems to be a question that Jesus wanted his listeners to try to answer. They had asked him some difficult questions, and they had admitted that he answered them well. Now, in return, he is asking them a difficult question. None of them will be able to answer it, and this will demonstrate his wisdom even further. His question actually will teach something to those who are able to recognize its implications. But it would be appropriate to leave it in question form and not translate it as a statement.

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

λέγουσιν

˱they˲_/are/_saying

Here Jesus is using the pronoun they in an indefinite sense. He does not have specific individuals in mind. Alternate translation: [do people say that]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

Δαυεὶδ Υἱόν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς πῶς λέγουσιν τὸν Χριστὸν εἶναι Δαυὶδ Υἱόν)

Here Jesus is using the term son to mean “descendant.” Alternate translation: [a descendant of King David]
