11.18 Venit enim. Sicut tunc ita et nunc utramque viam salutis respuitis. Lamentavimus ad Joannem, cecinimus ad Christum. Hæc est summa.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

11:2-19 This section begins with John the Baptist’s doubt, but it ends by exalting his faith and ministry (11:7-19). The people’s rejection of John (11:16-19) foreshadows their later rejection of Jesus.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἦλθεν

came

The word came refers to John living and behaving in certain ways. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [was] or [lived]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μήτε ἐσθίων μήτε πίνων

neither eating nor drinking

This does not mean that John never ate food. It means he fasted often, and when he ate, he did not eat expensive food or drink. If it would be helpful for your readers, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [frequently fasting] or [neither eating good food nor drinking wine]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

λέγουσιν

˱they˲_/are/_saying

The pronoun they refers to people in general. If this is not clear for your readers, you could use a form that refers to people in general. Alternate translation: [many say] or [others say]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

λέγουσιν, δαιμόνιον ἔχει.

˱they˲_/are/_saying /a/_demon ˱he˲_/is/_having

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [they say that he has a demon.]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

δαιμόνιον ἔχει

/a/_demon ˱he˲_/is/_having

To say that someone has a demon is to say that the demon possesses or controls that person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [He is demon-possessed] or [He is controlled by a demon]
