MAT 12:9 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 12:1–14: Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath

There are two main events in this section. One is about picking grain on the Sabbath. The other is about healing on the Sabbath. These two events show that Jesus has the authority to decide which deeds are acceptable to do on the Sabbath.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus showed that he has authority over Sabbath rules

Lord of the Sabbath (NIV)

The Pharisees criticize Jesus because of what he did on the Sabbath

There are parallel passages for this section in Mark 2:23–3:6 and Luke 6:1–11.

12:9

Moving on from there, Jesus entered their synagogue,

¶ Then Jesus left that place and went to a synagogue.
¶ Then Jesus and his disciples exited the grainfields and went to a prayer/worship house of the Jews and entered it.

Moving on from there, Jesus entered their synagogue: After the discussion with the Pharisees (12:1–7), Jesus and his disciples left the grainfields and went to a synagogue. They went to the synagogue on that same Sabbath day.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

Then Jesus left that place and entered their synagogue. (NET)

Jesus left that place and went to a synagogue (GNT)

Then Jesus and his disciples exited the grainfields and went to the synagogue.

entered: The Greek phrase that the BSB translates as entered is more literally “went/came into.” In some languages, it is natural to say that Jesus entered a synagogue. In other languages, it is natural to simply say that Jesus went to a synagogue. You should use the most natural expression in your language.

their synagogue: The phrase their synagogue refers to the synagogue of the Jews of that area. (This same expression occurs in 4:23b and 9:35b.) In many languages, it is natural to simply say that Jesus went to “a synagogue.” For example:

a synagogue (GNT)

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐκεῖθεν

from_there

The phrase from there refers to the grainfields that Jesus and his disciples were walking through when the Pharisees confronted them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [from those fields] or [from that place]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

τὴν συναγωγὴν αὐτῶν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί μεταβάς ἐκεῖθεν ἦλθεν εἰς τήν συναγωγήν αὐτῶν)

The pronoun their refers to the Jewish people living in this region. If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer to these people more directly. Alternate translation: [the Jewish synagogue] or [the synagogue in that area]
