TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:24 hang on to your life: Placing oneself on the throne denies Jesus. The result is to lose one’s life, mainly at the last judgment (9:26; John 12:25).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ὃς δ’ ἂν ἀπολέσῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ

whoever whoever but ¬wishfully /may/_lose the life ˱of˲_him on_account me

This phrase is an idiom. Jesus is not encouraging his disciples to do self-destructive things. Alternate translation: “but whoever is willing to give up everything for me”
